I work for highly disorganized partners. It starts at the equity level and flows down to the NEPs as well. I have only ever worked for these partners and our group is fairly isolated within the firm so I don’t know how other groups are run/if they are better. I’m curious, do you feel like your partners are organized? Do they set up cases and get people working on tasks in a streamlined manner? Even if they are hands off, do they have systems in place that keeps it all running for them smoothly? I feel like my group is constantly emailing back and forth asking who is covering what case that has a deadline we are about to miss, nothing gets saved in our shared file server, and the only way to figure out what’s going on is if you’re lucky enough to be copied on a couple of email chains that somewhat let you piece it together.
A lot of really brilliant lawyers are airheads when it comes to routine matters like scheduling. My experience is that good staff (secretaries, paralegals, etc.) can help keep some things like scheduling smoothly.
