[quote=Anonymous]As a lawyer (associate), I always say "we" referring to myself and the partner (more often than not a female in my case), not because I am giving the partner credit for my work but because I am expressing the partner's buy-in to the message. If I send a client a draft and say, "Attached is my draft brief ..." that may be more accurate because I wrote it, but if I say "Attached is our draft brief ...," the client knows the partner has reviewed, revised as needed, and signed off on it. Not sure if that is relevant to OP's situation but just my experience. [/quote]
