[quote=Anonymous]A common game that associates would play at my former (and very well known and respected Biglaw firm) was called "A$$hole or Asperger's?" Then they'd name the partner and the game would begin. There are many, many partners on the spectrum in Biglaw. Associates on the spectrum who make partner at Biglaw are the ones who dazzle with their brilliance and work ethic. There's plenty of room for that type of partner at Biglaw. They'll never be expected to be rainmakers and likely never will be the highest paid partners in their firms. But Biglaw is a big tent. My advice for OP would be to worry less about how the partners live their lives outside of work and focus on the work. Biglaw is not going to deny OP a partnership slot for not having a beach house or playing golf or having kids or anything else if she does excellent work and lots of it. [/quote]
