We have received comments about how well some firms' part-time programs are
working. These comments are often anonymous and cannot be verified;
therefore, they should be viewed as unreliable and given no more weight than
gossip.

Comments on the firm's part-time policy:
The Portland
office's NALP survey explains, "DWT is committed to working
with our lawyers to balance their need for flexible working arrangements
with the financial realities of our practice. We recognize that
we have a long-term investment in our associates, and we understand
that financial considerations are not of exclusive importance
in managing a successful firm. We believe that the firm and its
lawyers benefit equally from a policy that provides associates
with childcare or similar domestic responsibilities with flexible
options in setting their overall workloads and schedules, and
we will therefore continue to make individual arrangements with
associates who seek to work on a part-time basis for this purpose."
Part
time attorneys must work a minimum of 75% of the full-time hours.
