Been practicing complex lit (employment and consumer class/representative actions) on the plaintiff side for last 6 years of my 7 year career. Just accepted a defense side offer, with a billable requirement/initial bonus eligibility of 1750 hours. I know billing is different on the defense side than simply recording hours toward a lodestar on the plaintiff side. How many "real" total hours is 1750 billable hours? I know it's supposed to be relatively low, but not sure what it really means?

How do firms calculate how much parental leave to provide, either paid or unpaid. Or do they just pick a number, like “yeah they can get to know their kid in a few weeks and I couldn’t possibly have that attorney out for 12 weeks?” I’m at a small firm, no FMLA or state requirement. We get four weeks paid and four weeks unpaid. Would like to push for more but not sure how to argue costs side of it.

PARTNERS: two questions —1. If you see an associate has really low hours for the month, do you imagine them chillen on a beach somewhere or do you consider they probably spent most of their days sitting in front of the computer being “available”? 2. If you send an associate a random e-mail on a weekend like “Can you pull X and send to Y”, would you get annoyed if they responded saying they weren’t by a comp or would you consider it reasonable that they wouldn’t be by a comp on a weekend?

Partners: How often are you paid? Do you receive regular paychecks/distributions in equal amounts? Does the firm ever withhold a check during a cash crunch?
