But in seriousness I admit I get defensive when I see big law attorneys just work 14 hours a day and have no life and their wives and kids never see them except they are also cheating and are raging alcoholics. I’m positive that is true for some but it’s not true for literally any big law attorney I know personally. My husband is a big law partner and I’m not in big law but I’m an attorney and many of my friends are, and the above description doesn’t match any of them.

Same. DH cooks dinner for the family every night. Happy place

+3 another big law wife here. My DH leaves work at 4:30 every day so he can eat dinner with us and he gives the kids their bath. All of his fellow partners are married and involved dads. Also...if he leaves me I'm getting everything and he knows that so good luck to any intrepid first years I guess.

+4 - My DH always says that he has the good side of the deal in terms of our marriage. We have 3 kids, I am still in shape and workout, work full time and make 6 figures and take care of the kids. Plus I have been with him way before he made any money. So if he cheats on me and leaves me I will take him for everything he is worth. And he knows it.

I actually went to law school and worked in Biglaw. 90% of the wives are plain.

Because they met their wives in law school? Or because they are nerds not easily impressed by some bimbo?

HHhha mine was the captain of his rowing team in college. And I am far from fat even after kids. And also not a lawyer. But we did meet during college way way before he became a partner.

Bwahaha. Same. Didn’t stop a google eyed former secretary throwing herself at my husband the entire Xmas party. It was really embarrassing for everyone. What these girls don’t realize is that most Big Law partners worse chasing can do the math and can’t afford the divorce.

To the OP: go to law school; you’ll find what you re looking for and might learn yourself something in the process

Also, I hear George Conway is up for grabs

Forgot to add, this young woman used to bake cookies for our kids for BLP husband to take home. My kids laughed and ate the cookies. It became a massive in joke with my husband and family. Cringy but funny

In all truth, if you’re after a married or divorced BLP you’d be disappointed with what’s left over financially. If you’re after a young associate, it’s uncertain and you’ll wait. Finance? Try selling coffee on Wall Street. BTW has anyone watched Industry on Showtime. Totally true — I miss those days!

NP, also had a woman from *my* work bake cookies for DH. I ate them, he doesn't care for cookies. They were delicious!

He's banging her as you get fat from cookies

lol @ anyone desperate enough to settle for a V30 loser. Imagine the shame having to say your husband works at White & Case.

For heaven's sake, y'all need to stop this -- it's pathetic. If you are that interested in BigLaw, get your own damn JD.
