How long does a lawyer have to work?

Answer 1

It depends on the type of law he is practicing and his client base. Some lawyers work typical 8 to 5 hours if they work for a corporation. Sole Practitioners may work 70 and 80 hours a week to get the work done for their clients. Many corporate lawyers are required to have 2000 hours a year in client billing hours, which is pretty much 8 hours a day for 50 weeks.
