Smaller firm and PT until kiddos were in kindergarten, then PT BigLaw. No regrets. I worked 4 days a week and spent a ton of time with them. It was very expensive, but worth it for sure.

Mid law in a niche area of my big law regulatory practice. I worked 1300 hours last year, still made my bonus. I’m on track for similar annualization for this year. My home life is wonderful and I’m not neglecting any areas of my life. My total comp is about $300k in a mcol area, so the pay isn’t bad, either. The only real tradeoff is the lack of prestige and leaving Manhattan.
