    If "finalizing documents" means notarizing, there is no cheap versus expensive law office. The cost is set by law at P200 per page. Of course, if the attorney/notary downloads the document etc., that amounts to legal, not notarial service.

    ...and because the courts and banks are closed? If you can't go to work and you can't get paid for being in the office what's the point of going to work? lol

    As for getting paid a lot: I was always told to work smarter, not harder. There is a reason hard labor makes less...any monkey can do it, and if one monkey complains too much then there is always another monkey ready to step up. Want to make more, don't make yourself as easily replaceable. Lawyers excel at this. :wink:

    Legal firms in many countries appear to like as many holidays as they can get - closing about 2 weeks over Xmas being an example. I guess it is because they charge so much they can afford not to work much.
