Bottom line, I think these kind of hours are not sustainable over the long run without significant negative consequences to one's health and / or family life.  However, they are what is expected at high-end law firms.
And this is the reason why I didn't pursue law any further than getting certified as a paralegal. Go figure - I ended up a Public Librarian. :P I have the utmost respect for those who did stay the course and got their law degree.
