[quote=Anonymous]Yes, do all of the above, but here's the real thing: Find a pace you can live with and don't be afraid to say no. You do need to keep your hours up, and there should be an outstanding year or two (2400+), but you do not need to be the top billing associate; ultimately it will only hasten your way to the exit. When you work for multiple partners, nobody knows your schedule but you. And practical advice: Have your babies while at the firm, within the first several years of beginning practice. For some reason, law firms offer more generous maternity and paternity benefits than any place I know, particularly considering the salary. If you are a man, take the paternity leave. All of it.[/quote]
