Can I still pursue my hobby in big law?

depends on your practice group and depends on whether you have flexibility to work from home (or at least go home after training and not have to shower change etc. to go back to the office after training).

There are SOME weeks when i literally don't have more than 20 minutes to myself a day and will come out of those weeks with unwashed hair, unwashed sheets, bowls of cereal piled up in the sink and a very energetic dog. These weeks are pretty rare and usually only happen about 4-6 times a year. Otherwise, yeah man once you're past first year you totally can find 1.5-2 hours to train a day. Just schedule it into your calendar. First year, you may have to put up with training in 45 min intervals, unless you're a morning person.
