Most part-timers are female, according to new research from The Association for Legal Career Professionals (NALP). They account for 70 per cent of this part of the workforce. Among women, 12.9 per cent do not work full hours. Among female partners the proportion drops to 10.5 per cent.

James Leipold, NALP's executive director, said: 'The utilization of part-time schedules for all lawyers has dropped now for three years in a row, and it has dropped for both partners and associates. Given the direction the data is heading, I feel confident calling this a post-recessionary trend at this point.' Source: NALP
