[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All of the lawyers I have worked with in other countries work long hours, too. And I have worked with many. Why do you think they work fewer hours? Do you have experience with them doing this?[/quote] OP You are not going to change how law firms work. Part time is for stars and of counsel is for much more experienced lawyers. You should try the government. Also an employer will look at the age of your child and ask themselves, will she want another baby soon? Which would be logical for them (and you) but they would be likely to not want to work with a young mom who was pregnant in addition to having a 2 year old. Law firms do what they think is best for them. Smart would be to get a government position before you get pregnant again. Sats show that something like 90% of women partners do not have kids at all.[/quote]
