[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^ Also the PPs trying to suggest your hours are not high are nuts. Non billable hours are significant, especially the more senior you get. My DH bilked the most as a mid-love associate but bills far, far, far less as a partner, because he spends so much time on client development. “Billable hours” is not a good shorthand for precisely how much someone is working. Everyone replying should take at face value OPs claim that she is drowning.[/quote]

I think most everyone can see that, except for a couple of lawyer-types who think working 60 hour weeks is slacking it.  [/quote]

But "lawyer-types" are the ones who can most accurately comment on what is considered working all the time at a [i]law firm.[/i]  Non-billable work can be substantial, but it is still true that at many firms most lawyers (at least associates) will bill more, often a lot more, than 2,100 hours.

Having all of these non-lawyers comment on whether OP's hours are a lot for law firms isn't that useful.[/quote]
