Welcome
to
our
daily
feature,
Quote
of
the
Day.
Everything
I’ve
heard
is
that
it’s
still
quite
a
challenge
getting
people
in,
even
with
these
mandates.
We’re
starting
to
come
to
a
point
where
firms
have
to
put
their
money
where
their
mouth
is
and
penalize
people
if
they
don’t
come
in.
That
becomes
a
risky
proposition
when
you’re
in
a
world
where
people
have
lots
of
choices
and
not
every
firm
requires
the
same
mandate.

comments
given
to
the
American
Lawyer,
concerning
Biglaw
firms
increasing
attendance
mandates
but
still
having
difficulty
in
getting
attorneys
to
abide
by
those
in-office
facetime
requirements.
Partners
have
reportedly
been
especially
have
resistant
to
these
attendance
policies.
