Scenario

When law partners disagree on billing practices and client relationships

My law firm partner and I have completely different philosophies about billing clients and it's creating tension in every case discussion we have. She wants to be aggressive about hours and I keep finding myself padding estimates downward when she's not around, and we both know what's happening but we've never actually talked about it.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

Two professionals are operating from incompatible ethical frameworks while avoiding the conversation that could either align them or force a fundamental reckoning about their partnership.
