What is the best lawyer to be if you want to have a family? -

I want to be a lawyer, but I don t know which type would allow me to have time for a family and still make alot of money.

Here is an excellent article I found just for you. Pretty interesting. It speaks of lawyer working in untraditional fields. I found it interesting.

If you go to work for a law firm as a new associate you will work 80 hrs/wk. If you hang out your own shingle you have the problem with getting clients. Either way you are going to spend a lot of time at the office. Whether or not you make money or not depends on how good a lawyer you are. All fields of law are lucrative if you are good at it.

Probably estates, wills and trusts. It s pretty 9-5.
