[quote=Anonymous]Someone at a firm I used to work at would bill time to going to conferences and working on memos and such but actually he was having sex with another associate he met up with.  He billed a lot and ultimately made partner and moved to a different state's office.

One of the important partners at the firm slept with and/or possibly raped a female associate in his group (there was a power imbalance).  She was already the girlfriend of another partner at the firm, who later left the firm altogether.  She wound up making partner and the important lawyer went on to start another important firm.  The whole thing was nutso.  Meanwhile there were old male attorneys still at the firm who were harassing female associates left and right.  It was a crazy time.  I always wondered whether I would have been more successful if I'd gone to a different firm or worked in a different group underneath attorneys who weren't so weirdly discriminatory, but this was 20 years ago and more like the Wild West than things are today, I hope.  I'm sure I didn't even hear about the half of it.[/quote]
