[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That’s capitalism. There is a ton of money on the line; if they don’t make deadlines companies could lose $$$, which could translate to other job losses for their own workers and definitely unhappy shareholders.

So they will pay a lot to keep legal matters on track, and if your DH can’t keep the pace there is a long line of attorneys eager to work those hours to earn that paycheck.

Now what’s interesting is that there seem to be so many attorneys  capable performing the work, albeit with long hours. Why doesn’t your DH go into a field like ML where they enjoy huge salaries but work much more low key hours, because there is not a long line of people capable of doing that work. He should pivot to a career with a moat, like advanced tech or a [b]doctor which is gate kept by AMA.[/b] [/quote]

What a bizarre response.  If OP’s husband is already a partner, he’s likely been at this 10-15 years which would make him squarely middle aged.  It’s not exactly easy or quick to “pivot” and become a doctor in your 40s or 50s.  Nor would that mean better hours or pay!  PP must be a AI bot.[/quote]
