[quote=Anonymous]If you made partner, then clearly you are a very good attorney. With the bad economy lingering into it's fifth year and all of the laterals around today it's difficult to even make income partner; so you must be good.

Perhaps this slightly younger attorney is genuinely bound for greatness??  Applaud her for her strengths and as an asset to the firm. Her strengths only serve to make your team stronger. They don't diminish your contributions whatsoever.

You have kids and a commute. At present you're feeling a little overwhelmed; it's normal. Gradually, you'll get back on top of your game and you'll feel just as good or better than that day when you were elected partner.

BTW, the economy is turning around. Within a couple of years there'll be more M&As, trade and tax issues, and plenty of work to go around. They need you.  The boomers are retiring and young partners like you will be inheriting the board rooms in just a few short years.

When the Senior Partner you currently report too retires, it will be you and those younger associates who will be critiquing the newbies of the future.

Have faith and know that you are a member of the future ruling class at the firm. [/quote]
