[quote=Anonymous]The problem is that BigLaw partners (and I am including the women) lived through this type of indentured servitude and think that if they did it, everyone else should. It really IS a cult of martyrdom. And no, clients very rarely really NEED something overnight---but when you are charging first year associate time at over $500/hour you need to prove your value some way and law firms choose to do it by imposing bizarre deadlines on themselves. And if I am paying $900 for partner time, if I DO want it turned on a dime, then they better be able to do it.[/quote]
