[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about becoming a non-equity partner ? Is a book of business required ?[/quote] I don't think of a non-equity partner as a real partner. They aren't sharing in the profits of the firm, and aren't sharing the risk. That is what a partner is. I've seen the title given to associates a firm expects to make a full partner but who need training wheels on for a bit while they prove their ability to make rain, and I've also seen it given to workhorse lawyers who do great work and bill crazy hours but who will never bring in clients -- and the firm wants to bill for all of those hours at the partner rate. Sounds like your DH isn't either of those scenarios. Bottom line, a non-equity partner is a salaried position, like counsel. I think of it as a vanity title, but I'm sure some non-eq partners here will think differently...[/quote]
