[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know two lawyers with excellent big firm partner experience in that age range who have been looking for a change for a year now. His problem isn't his field, it's age discrimination.[/quote] No, it's not age discrimination in the legal world. Lawyers don't really hit their stride until their 40s. The issue for partners looking to exit is that they're looking for pretty rare jobs - senior level in house roles or senior level government roles. In both cases, they prefer to hire internally or want experience that the partners don't have (ie, prior in house experience or government experience). I'm certain they would have few issues exiting if they were willing to take an IC-level job at a client. [/quote]
