For decades, lawyers have been complaining that they hate working at law firms, and clients have expressed increasing frustration with high legal fees. But complaining is as far as either group went, until recently. This is perhaps the first attempt at a comprehensive review of a wide variety of new business organizations that have arisen in recent years to remedy the market's failure to deliver business organizations responsive to the complaints of either lawyers or of clients.The "New Models of Legal Practice" described here typically offer a new value proposition for lawyers and clients. For lawyers, New Models offer better work-life balance and more control over other aspects of their work lives-in exchange for which lawyers typically shoulder more risk, giving up a guaranteed salary, to be paid instead only for the hours they work. For clients, New Models typically drive down legal fees by sharply diminishing overhead through elimination of expensive real estate and the high cost of training new lawyers, and (again) dispensing with guaranteed salaries.

One of the most critical junctures for community support of breastfeeding is the mother's return to work. When breastfeeding workers have access to both time and space for expressing breast milk, they are more likely to breastfeed for the recommended term, yet many mothers still struggle to access these simple accommodations in their workplace. Healthcare providers can and should aid nursing mothers in accessing these accommodations. One tangible way to offer support for continued breastfeeding upon return to work is to provide notes for lactation accommodation in the workplace.

Most women today are the primary, sole, or cobreadwinners for their families; their continued ability to work during and after pregnancy is crucial for their families’ well‐being. Midwives and other health care providers are regularly asked to provide work notes for patients who need adjustments to how, when, or where their job is done to continue working while maintaining a healthy pregnancy or breastfeeding. Whereas an improperly written work note can result in the patient being forced out on leave or losing their job, an effectively written work note from a health care provider can ensure the patient will receive the adjustments they need to stay safe and healthy on the job. Health care providers can also play an important role by incorporating discussions about workplace issues into care conversations. This article provides an overview of pregnancy‐related employment rights, guidelines for writing effective work notes, and a discussion of common workplace issues patients face and how health care providers can respond.
