[quote=Anonymous]I understand his frustration. These days firms promote most associates to non-equity partner at years 8-10. So he’s technically lower on the total pole than lawyers who graduated in 2014. That said, his only realistic chance of becoming a (non-equity) partner is to lateral to another firm that offers the title as an incentive. But if he is happy with his job he’d be stupid to leave a good situation over a title. His current form isn’t going to promote him without a book of business, and if hasn’t figured it out at age 51 he probably isn’t ever going to make it. The only times I’ve seen a counsel move up without a book is when all the partners in a group depart to another firm and the old firm needs to pretend like they still have that practice.[/quote]
