[quote=Anonymous]Big law senior associate on a reduced schedule with a toddler here. My speciality doesn't really require 24/7 availability, but I have clients on the west coast, so their afternoons are my evenings. I'm marginally available out of work hours - meaning I typically respond to emails, but usually not anything that takes more than ~5-10 minutes (but that can add up). Sometimes it means something time consuming, but I try to keep that to after my LO's bedtime. It's expected in my job, and something I'd want the junior attorneys who work with me to do, what the partners do, and what the clients expect (and pay for). I hate it, but I otherwise have a lot of flexibility and independence and the money is good. But it's the main reason I dream of an in house job with fixed hours. [/quote]
