[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't understand law firm lawyers who cry about long hours. I'm a solo practitioner, make about $400k, and work 25 to 30 hours a week. Am I a BigLaw partner making $7m? No, but I drop off and pick up my DC's from school every day and I take 3 vacations abroad with them every year. Life as a lawyer only sucks if you chose to make it suck.[/quote] What kind of law do you practice? I think the problem is that the legal specialties with the best quality of life are rarely the ones new lawees are attracted to. I thought I wanted to be a litigator out if law school. Later I realized I should have gone into T&E for the lifestyle and client relationships I prefer. But I didn't get that at 28. Not too late now, but annoying to switch.[/quote]
