[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Reading these posts makes it seem like BVA is the hardest federal position for an atty. Anyone know if there any federal positions out there that are comparable or even harder than BVA? [/quote]

Hard to say if its the hardest job.  Its more like factory work than being a traditional lawyer. But factory work at a grueling pace with standards that are very hard to meet. [/quote]

Yes, BVA attorneys perform factory work, but so do a lot a attorneys. I’m sure that a huge percentage of legal work consists of boilerplate language and templates that the monkey, I mean attorney, can plug in.[/quote]

Most attorney jobs have parts that are difficult. That is true. But that doesn’t take away from the point of this thread which is to point out the particular difficulties of this job for those who are interested in knowing the details. [/quote]

I agree; I just wanted to clarify that BVA attorneys aren’t the only attorneys doing factory work. While some attorneys do indeed engage in high level appellate work or complex litigation, most legal work is factory work (i.e., boilerplate language and templates).[/quote]
