More than a third (37%) of UK lawyers surveyed by Law360 Pulse, which launched its UK edition this week, say their work-life balance has worsened in the past year. 

Half the lawyers report their remote work post-pandemic has contributed to an erosion of work/home boundaries. Only 16% of lawyers are fully remote, while 56% are expected to go into the office at least three days each week.

Law360 UK Pulse’s inaugural lawyer satisfaction survey, released this week, also finds three-quarters of respondents rate their current financial stability as ‘average or poor’, while 63% feel stressed about their finances ‘sometimes’ and more than a third are ‘likely’ or ‘very likely’ to seek a new job this year.
