[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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] Most BigLaw partners don’t make 7M either[/quote] Honest question here. Does Big Law basically mean your job is to be a lawyer for crappy corporations? [/quote] Pretty much. The funny thing is I'm a lawyer who interacts with a bunch of other lawyers and the work we get from BigLaw tends to be terrible. We almost wonder if they're slow walking work to get billables. Maybe they're good in other areas but in my field you are much better off going to a boutique firm.[/quote]
