As much as I love my job, it requires a time investment above and beyond most careers. I work as a lawyer in a downtown law office, and most of my duties spill over into evenings and weekends. When business is booming, you don’t ask questions. Instead, you become prepared. For me, that meant purchasing a leather briefcase to transport my important paperwork.

I also spend a significant amount of time on the road, traveling to far-flung courthouses and district attorneys’ offices. It’s impractical to grab case files and simply toss them in the car because they would become shuffled and disorganized en route. The briefcase keeps all of my documents in order and looks stylish to boot. I never leave home – or the office – without it.
