[quote=Anonymous]OP - are you an attorney who is dealing with this personally? I have have had two babies while in big law (took approx 4 1/2 paid months off both times) and have been welcomed back and treated fabulously both times. I work full time but would not consider myself 110%. I am usually at the office from 9:30am - 6pm (Mon - Fri), but the partners with whom I work understand my situation and therefore I frequently work from home (gotta love VPN) in order to accommodate doctors appointments, etc. Their flexibility with my schedule comes from their comfort level in working with me for so many years - they know my work product and know I will get the job done. Granted, I am in a niche practice area, but I think they would much rather have me continue than try to find someone else. [/quote]
