Partnership Track or Public Defender: A Day in the Life

If you think you might like to make Partner, take a moment to review Vault's "A Day in the Life: Corporate Law Partner" which tracks a typical day from "40 minutes on StairMaster with The Wall Street Journal and Walkman" at 6:30 a.m. to "Arrive home. Check e-mail. Send responses to e-mail messages." at 10:45 p.m. More samplings of real days in attorneys' lives are available at Vault's Day in the Life, including days from an Assistant District Attorney, an Employment Litigator, a Plaintiffs' Lawyer, and a Public Defender, just to name a few. These brief vignettes provide excellent insight into the work life of different types of lawyers.
