How many hour a week does a lawyer work?

Answer 1

a day

Answer 2

Lawyers I know in private practice, and I am one, generally do not have to worry about dealing with rush hour traffic since they seldom go home that early. My typical weekday starts at 8:00 a.m. and ends about 7:30 p.m. When doing trials, you can go 16 or more hours a day, including weekends. Note also that it is a fallacy that you will work less once you reach the senior partner stage in a firm. Many government and in-house corporate lawyers maintain lower hours in the range of 40 to 50 hours a week.

I work about 5-6 days a week, depending on how many cases I have.

Answer 3

Most attorneys work about 60 hours a week. Associates with large firms are known to work 80+ hours per week, while partners and government employees typically work 40-50 hour weeks. It really varies based on the kind of work and the kind of employer the attorney works for.

Most work M-F, with the occasional weekend, but it is not uncommon to find firms where Saturday is part of the normal work week.

Of course, some attorneys take positions where they are employed part time, either to meet family obligations or because they are partially retired. These people typically work 3 days per week, or 5 short days.
