 Wheee! 

No faster that the tabloids.

Hell, pretty soon they'll have her in wedding dresses - superimposed of course, because unlike Stacy, she won't be getting any bridal dress modeling gigs.

There's also the possibility that, like any other girl who GC wants to date, that she decided to take a leave of absence or some such thing, so she will be free to date him regularly. I don't care how smart she is or how much money she is worth, the chance to even have a shot at Mrs. GC is something most women would think about.

I thought this was posted somewhere else but according to the Doughty Street website she has been given a 5 year appointment to the Attorney General....it has been explained that this is not a Law firm like in the U.S but that each barrister works for themselves, so she can take as much time off as she needs or work from anywhere. That being said with a 5 year appointment just being awarded to her I doubt she can be away from the UK for too long....if I understand it correctly.


Appointment to the Attorney General’s Public International Law Panel03.03.14 | Amal Alamuddin, Nikolaus Grubeck | +share
Doughty Street Chambers is very pleased to announce that Amal Alamuddin and Nikolaus Grubeck have been appointed to the Attorney General’s Public International Law C Panel. The panel consists of a handful of experts in international law who will be called upon to represent the UK Government in cases involving public international law in international courts and in the courts of England and Wales. This is the first time a panel of international law specialists has been set up by the government. The appointments are for a period of 5 years.

Thanks SG. I think I've stuck this info somewhere else - probably in the wrong place!

A trial that she's part of the prosecution team on started in The Hague in January of those accused of Hariri's assassination........but the accused are now on the run, so that's been held up! Unless they try them in their absence of course...

Don't forget that with all the technology we have today there's hardly any reason to be at work in an office any longer, except for meetings. And even they can be conducted via video link.
A "leave of absence" doesn't mean that she's not working on a current project.

Yep, I'm sure she has everything under control - and staff......no doubt when we see her checking her phone when she's out in LA in the evenings, it's because it's midday here or later anywhere else.......she's got it sorted

Ms Alamuddin has been appointed to C panel.

11. Secondly, the Panels should, so far as possible, cover a range of expertise in international law given the breadth of this field of law. It should also cover a range of different experiences including both those with strong academic backgrounds in international law, as well as those with practical courtroom experience and skills. It was considered that the balance of each Panel in this respect might differ.

For the A Panel, it was important that there were members of the A Panel with significant experience of running large cases. In this respect there was space for some candidates who had a more general practice in the public law sphere, provided that they had an appropriate level of proven experience in public international law.

Whereas for C Panellists it was much less likely that they would be required for their courtroom skills, as they were more likely to be part of a larger team and were more likely to be asked to develop arguments on international law in the preparation of a case and in support of more senior counsel who might not have the relevant public international law expertise. It was therefore their aptitude for work of that nature that was key.

I don't mean to be ornery Joanna but why are you so insistent that she doesn't need to be anywhere near her office?...I am not trying to be contrary and I agree that so many can telecommute nowadays but I know many who do need to go into the office once in awhile.  If she is not part of the major counsel and is just support all the more reason to meet with them in person. Plus just because they are telecommuting doesn't mean they have hours to spend on leisure time. They still need to work hard and for hours. If she is doing research and writing briefs she can't exactly be out and about.

Let's say she is "the one"....even if he lied and they were dating last fall (I think it happened after New Years) it is still early in the relationship to marry him off.  Even though is most recent ex actually did that...what she did is much more rare.  

Joanna you seem like a really nice person who only sees the good in people which is admirable so I don't want to argue...I just don't understand your insistence in some matters.

Back to the point...a friend of mine telecommutes but needs to do face to face at least once a month. Like I said earlier at some point she needs to go back to her office....

(I try to just post stories and facts but sometimes just need to express my opinions....)

I agree with you silly girl. Plus, with the time difference, she's be awake while he was sleeping.

 I think 'once in a while' is the key to the answer here.

From what I can see, Amal doesn't have a Monday-to-Friday 9-to-5 type of job - I'd say her working week is probably nearer 50 hours a week but if much of her job is researching and then preparing information to use in court then that can be done from anywhere.  Except for when she's in court or meeting people in preparation for a case, then I don't think she has to be anywhere in particular to do much of her job.  

I honestly don't know how much time she personally spends in court (perhaps any Brit lawyers here can clarify?).

Plus holidays in the UK (all of Europe) are more generous than in the US.  She'll get at least four weeks off a year, possibly more, plus public holidays, plus time off in lieu etc.

Yep, totally agree, but also - apart from Lorna who I think is having some fun here - I don't think anyone here really believes George is going to marry Amal any time soon.

Sure, the newspaper stories have him head over heels in love with her, but they do for every single woman he's ever dated. This is just the usual same old, same old.

Hmm, not really. He spent much of last year in Europe filming and even LA-London is only, what, a seven hour difference?

The thing is, he's got to work sometimes too - and when he works he really works - weeks or months at a time. If he's filming or scouting locations, or if he's promoting a project or seeking funding, filming commercials, selling Casamigos - the man hardly sits still - not to mention his humanitarian work. Other than the summer months, which he uses to recharge and reconnect with friends and family, the man's a workaholic.

Which one of them do you think will have to adjust their schedules most? And which do you think would be most willing to do so? And how long do you think it will take before resentment sets in? Whayever this turns out to be, it ain't gonna be easy!

Everyone is assuming that this is serious. There's no reason this can't just be a fling while they both have some down time. I don't think either of them is thinking with the right part of their anatomy - most especially Amal.

Call me a cynic, but I've never seen George make one iota of adjustment for his girlfriend's work requirements.

Maybe - I hope - it'll be different this time as Amal does actually have a job he needs to take seriously but I'm on a 'wait and see' mode on this one.

Very true.

I'm not sure though that 'everyone' is assuming this is serious. Are there many posters on here who think this is serious?

London is 8 hours ahead.  If they're open 9a-5p, LA time would be 1a-9a.

Sorry, I don't get it. Why can they only phone each other during working hours? They can speak any time from the afternoon to evening her time and he'd be up and enjoying in the day in LA.

"London is 8 hours ahead"

I think justpassinthrough wants to say that when she's in LA with George, Amal has to be awake when he is sleeping if she wants to call London for her work.

She doesn't speak about phone calls between A & G when séparates.

I will believe it's serious when George himself
declares it is.
And as he'll probably never say anything, and why should he, then I'll just enjoy seeing him with the
lady of HIS choice.
As I have always done in the past.

I remember his Mother telling a nosy interviewer, on video.....
"It's his business"... and that's good enough for me.

But you have never seen a law firm? I do it because my family owns a very large one where you work my uncles and cousins. A law firm always has a large library of books of law that lawyers constantly consult when preparing a defense or a prosecution. I am convinced that no lawyer can work away from his studio because some important documents may not be removed from the study enon may, for reasons of safety, travel emal. my conclusion or Amal is not working or is looking for a law firm in Los Angeles.

Lela is right. Lawyers always refer to law books for laws and research case numbers.

When they appear in court they need to refer to other similar cases and have
case numbers ready with names of defendants and plaintiffs.

It makes proceedings easy and expedites faster.

Amal's relationship with George will help get cases to be noticed.

But it can be a double sword because if she gets a negative outcome
it will have a lot of negative coverage and George's name can also
be attached to it. (JMO)

Just to comment a bit on what others have posted,

Lawyers do love to show off and gossip. They are up to date on what
everyone is doing. They are also great actors, they know how to put
a sad and happy face in a flash. How to change the tone of their voice
to get the results they need., even their body language coordinates.

Some master all this elements making them arrogant and feeling superior.

I think if she wants to continue her work on the international stage she'll have to stay where she is. She just got a five year job with the government in the UK, and she is affiliated with cases in Europe and the Middle East. I don't think she'd want to give that up and I don't know if there are many (if any) law firms in LA doing the kind of work she does, at the level she's used to.

Just my opinion, but if she "expands her horizons" to the US she'll be taking a step backward in her career. She'd want to continue in her field of expertise and that means building on what she has done already and the connections she has already made. - Also, she has just been named to a commission by the UK government for 5 years. Walking away from that wouldn't do much for her professional reputation.

If she's on extended holiday, fine, great, have at it. But if she's taking an extended leave from work, or planning a move to the US, giving up or not completing the work she's earned so that she can pursue a relationship with GC, then I'll lose any respect I may have held for her. And quite a bit for George, too, for asking or allowing it.

Even George Clooney can't be that good.

I don't know. If they want to get married and start a family especially have kids, then a woman must make some sacrifice in her career. That's it. Same for every wife.
If they don't want that, Amal has no reason to give up her career and George wouldn't allow that either.

@ Theminis - Amen!

I think that right now it's fun and exciting to have her around 24/7 - that summer romance kind of fling that rarely lasts long after the reality of everyday life sets in. But once he has to get back to work, she damn well better have something to do besides sit and wait for him, or follow him around like a puppy.He has never lasted long with clingy women.

I think the main attraction for him is the work she does - the field she's involved in and the level at which she operates.He respects that kind of success. I don't think he'd want her to give that up for him.

@Sevens - He says he doesn't want to be an absentee father. If he's not around much, and she's still working, I can't see them starting a family any time soon - unless she pulls a Stacy (Oops! Now how did that happen?) Then I think he'd probably lose all respect for her.

Indeed Lizzy, I guess she is too smart to be a dumb overnight even if it's George  Clooney being your boyfriend! HA! Very Happy

Is Amal "The One"?

I thought about this and I'm going to guess she's probably at about 101 if she's anything.

George will never be able to say, "I can count on one hand the number of women I've dated."

A centipede wouldn't be able to help him count them up!

brahahahaha

Oh don't mind me just amusing myself over here!

Only the only day we had our wrists slapped forget who it was by and told this was a decent site!!...lol.
And sent to the kitchen.

And yet we (fans) in most cases are just reporting what has been widely spoken of and written about!

Darling NFFE, please don't get disheartened. Forums and threads are like life they never end up where you think they will.... Just like George never thought there would ever be The One ... well not this one?

Such strong words from one so new to the site.

Hmm, perhaps not so new?

If you were sent to the kitchen it was that whatever you were discussing was in the wrong thread. I don't think it's too much to ask that we do try to stay on topic - I also go off topic too so I'm not pointing fingers as just reminding us all that we try to keep the postings logical.

If you start discussing your own personal life, loves, etc. then it's more appropriate that those posts be part of a discussion in Party in the Kitchen as it's not really about George.

As to the discussion about Amal - we are trying to keep it as civil as possible. Some are having difficulty with that so we may step in and say something.

__________________________

So back on topic - I don't believe there is such a thing as "the one." And I don't believe that there are soul mates. What I do believe is that if George and Amal are enjoying each others company, and if they can work out the distance and perhaps her work requirements, then they might have a chance.

I just don't know if George has the staying power - even for this gal who has so much going for her. And I'm still on the fence as I don't really know her politics and just hope that they are not something too radical that might be detrimental to George and his work.

So agree with you LD.

I also am not into this soul mate stuff its not from my generation...only really started about ten years ago or so.

This wonderful person who is going to come into your life and make everything right...a lot of men and women are looking for this miracle worker....where I believe it needs to come from inside of you.

I would be worried too about the staying power of a 53 year old man with short relationship historys.

As for his work it would depend on what you are refering to...either  his charities or his directing roles for a more ordinary date...this would be fine...but with AA agreed would take some working out...but if in love then it would be worth it. iMo
