[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You seem determined - good luck. I know things have changed a lot over the years but when I practiced, I had a similar arrangement to your dh as an associate (at a big law firm). However, I was on a reduced schedule, worked in a niche area and had great relationships with my clients and the partners I worked for. I didn’t have that arrangement on day 1. I needed to build those relationships and earn trust. I also had been practicing for years at that point. I would be surprised if a first year associate would have that much autonomy. If a partner needs something done that night, the associate (you) would have to get it done. You will have no ability to negotiate deadlines etc for several years. [/quote] Thank you - these are really helpful details. [/quote]
