While lawyers conduct most of their work in offices, libraries, and courtrooms, they will also find themselves traveling to gather evidence, appear in courts, and meet with clients. Hours and workloads vary among attorneys. Salaried lawyers usually work a fairly standard schedule and receive a standard paycheck, while those at private practices usually work overtime, and bill their clients by the hour. Private practice lawyers clock overtime hours mainly because of large amounts of research, client meetings, and document preparation. On the whole, most lawyers often work long hours, with about half working 40 hours or more per week. They often face additional time pressure when a case is being tried due to the large amount of preparation required. Generally, legal work is not seasonal, but tax lawyers and other such specialists will often experience work peaks at certain times in the year.
