[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How did you get through law school without actually learning anything about being a lawyer? [/quote] My guess is that it has something to do with the fact that she had a baby in the middle of it. OP - you need to figure out what you want here - lots of time with baby or a job as a big-law lawyer in this city. Most jobs won't allow you to do both. Yeah, I've seen women on this board who claim to manage it all, but they must not sleep. I'm not even sure Paralegals can get away with what you're asking. You're probably better off looking for a job that will value your legal training but may not be an actual lawyer position until you get to a point where you realize it's not worth time away from your kid or you're willing to sacrifice that to practice law. Or, I don't know, move to Juneau - maybe lawyers there can do what you're hoping for.[/quote]
