The Hours: How are yours looking for 2009?

The billable hour may be under attack, but for now, it still rules the lives of most lawyers slaving away in Biglaw offices around the country.
An ATL reader recently wrote to us and asked if we would do a survey of the health of associate hours this year. With the work slowdown, we imagine hours for 2009 are on track to be a bit lower than last year.
Most people have had their mid-year reviews. How are your hours looking? Is 1600 the new black? Are you trailing the pack?
Take our survey and obsessively compare your hours discuss after the jump.


Please note that we’re asking for your prediction for total 2009 hours. We know no one’s hit 2000 hours by August of this year, except for maybe a few Weil associates.
