[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Running up bill. Don't let him.
Don't call back. Email. Let him know he isn't needed to work on those extraneous things at this time.[/quote]

You're in charge. You are not responsible for maintaining the relationship. I would not spend my time ot company $$ on this. Would also alert my manager.

Be very clear about "pencils down" and "do not work any further on this," make sure it's in writing over email. We had something like this come up. I also ended up transitioning away to another firm. Plenty of people cover any of these topics and you should work with someone whose style meshes with yours or at least respects how you want to work.

Fwiw I am also a WOC and much younger than the law firm partner and I was new to the company at the time. I think he thought he was in charge. Turns out he was not.[/quote]

The last paragraph reeks of "chip on my shoulder."  Before that you were doing great.[/quote]

"You were doing great" - what a randomly condescending reply[/quote]
