: Ms. JDClippings: NYT on Law Firms' Changing Attitudes towards Work/Life Balance
By jessie
Lisa Belkin interviews Deborah Epstein Henry and details the recent and rapid transformation of many law firms' policies in today's New York Times article, Who's Cuddly Now? Law Firms.
Among other signs of change, Belkin noted this touching vignette:
A harbinger of changing times might well be the brief filed by the hard-driving white-shoe firm of Weil Gotshal & Manges of New York, asking a judge to reschedule hearings set for Dec. 18, 19, 20 and 27 of last year.
?Those dates are smack in the middle of our children?s winter breaks, which are sometimes the only times to be with our children,? the lawyers wrote.
The judge moved the hearings.
