This can be quite confusing and it is difficult to talk about it because if you haven’t experienced it, it is difficult to understand.The enormity of the change in role and responsibility and the accompanying psychological and relationship shifts needed to support the transition to becoming a partner at law firm is often underestimated and misunderstood.
