[quote=Anonymous]Were there partners who recruited you and who give you work? Those are the ones you need to be reaching out for more work and advice as to whether they'll protect you until you can get your hours in line with expectations. Partners are very competitive and look to undermine each other. It sounds like one big honcho already has it in for you, likely as a means to assert his dominance over other partners with whom you've worked. He's looking out for his own grunts, who'll have even higher hours if you aren't billing time every now and then. It's not beyond salvaging if you can get more work and send a different message about your ambitions, but you've been very naive to date. The fact the firm didn't give you full credit for your seniority when you started was a good indication they didn't really think your prior experience was all that valuable to their practice.[/quote]
