Law has not traditionally been friendly to people who want work-life balance. However, flexible legal jobs for attorneys, paralegals and legal secretaries can be found through a handful of sites. These sites offer legal jobs that are part-time, remote and flexible.

FairyGodBoss
FairyGodBoss is a job search site that can be used by anyone, but specializes in helping women find work. It’s particularly attractive for women looking for professional positions, like legal jobs, that don’t normally offer work-life flexibility. In addition to posting jobs, the site ranks employers by how well they treat women. Employers get a score based on promotion possibilities, maternity leave policies and the number of women in management positions. You can learn more about FairyGodBoss by reading our full review here.
