Globally, the pandemic has been a tipping point resulting in an historic shift in the workplace and what many have called The Great Resignation. During the initial quarantine, with the luxury of having the time and space to reevaluate their life priorities, millions resigned from their positions to pursue other opportunities. This dramatic upheaval has played out in the traditional legal industry where it’s commonplace for the staff to be in-person everyday and regularly work long hours in what can be a demanding environment. 

The Great Resignation—and what some are dubbing the Great Reevaluation because of how it’s changed workers’ attitudes about their jobs—demonstrated to both employers and workers that remote work can be done effectively, providing more control over one’s life and increasing personal happiness.
