[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As the stay-at-home spouse to a Big Law partner, I think you need to talk to your spouse before you consider it. Big Law hours can take a real toll on the marriage, we have to put a lot more work into keeping our relationship in a good place because the extra hours can easily breed extra stress and resentment.[/quote] +1 DH working in Big Law has nearly destroyed our marriage. He is a very senior partner, but the work never stops. It is time our family will never get back. We are fortunate to have money, but it is not a substitute for a spouse.[/quote] I was going to say this, except DH is a newish partner. And from what I've seen it's good if you're planning on having an affair with someone you work with. DH's friend did this--I still haven't gotten over the shock, but his wife doesn't know.[/quote]
