We want LI to be one of the friendliest places on the internet, where lawyers and law students help each other with their career related queries and occasionally discuss other stuff that might affect their lives too. In other words:
1. Be kind, respectful and helpful to each other.
2. Be bona fide, truthful, genuine and curious.
3. Assume the best intention of others.
Therefore, in using the site, you must agree to do your best to uphold these community guidelines.
Note that what you find here is written and moderated by anonymous people on the internet.
Therefore everything you read here is very likely unverified, rumour, speculation and/or downright false.
In continuing to read anything here, you must therefore agree not to take anything you read here as factual and that you will exercise due caution, diligence and common sense before acting on any information you may come across here.
You also agree to report any inaccurate or malicious comments with the buttons. Moderators take action within 24 hours, as required and appropriate under law.
Our full terms and conditions apply too.
Do you solemnly agree to all of the above?
1. What is the scene of a 25-30 y/o associate exploring his romantic relationships(dating and developing a mature relationship)? What that romantic journey looks like?
2. How 35-45 yo corp lawyers find time to spend with their wife, kids, parents? Picture a family life with mom/dad being a corp lawyer.
I'm looking for your precious POVs and personal anecdotes.
Lets not spam this with irrelevant content.
Thanks!

2. Boomer is one born roughly between 1946 and 1964. Not more than 5% of people in law firms are boomers.

"Fuck bitches. Get money."
Now, since my husband has already been a part of the industry, he knows how insane work gets at times. But we make it a point to go out often, to spend as much time we have together. I am planning to start my own practice full time, things will get rough in the initial years, but we are in for the bigger game.
