Up to PAR

The Project for Attorney Retention (PAR) works to reduce unwanted attrition among lawyers -- beneficial for both legal employers and the lawyers themselves -- by promoting the use of reduced hours schedules and the advancement of women lawyers. Its web site, www.attorneyretention.org, includes information for lawyers and law firms about non-stigmatized part-time programs, best practices for retaining lawyers, and how part-time really works at different firms.

More on Fenwick & West

Thanks to Ralph Pais for a quick response regarding Fenwick & West's work/life policies. He confirms that the firm has a terrific reduced hours policy, and has put together several programs to support its successful implementation. The firm is also planning to feature work/life issues at its upcoming all-attorney firm retreat. Ralph also states that the firm considers all aspects of diversity, including retention of women and lawyers working on reduced schedules, in the compensation program discussed in our earlier blog.

WTG!
