[quote=Anonymous]As a biglaw refugee, I would just add one more voice saying that 1950 is usually the bare minimum. Many firms will boast their 1950 requirement, but all the attorneys are actually billing 2100+ (which I consider to be brutal). As a rule of thumb, I think I needed to be at the office 10hrs to bill about 7-7.5hrs a day. It's not an easy way to live, having to jot down everything you do in increments of 6minutes. I am *so* happy never to have to do that again. Think about what you want your life to look like -- if this sounds okat to you, then move forward. It can be done with small kids. But it's hard. And usually not without one or two good nannys who can help supplement during the nights you have to work longer. Good luck!!![/quote]
