So many people leave without telling others where they are going so you can just say you are pursuing another opportunity. They don’t have to know that you don’t have anything

You never know - maybe they have some other connection / opportunity if you give them real talk

Thanks for the helpful responses. Current project has been rough but I don’t want them to feel like I’d rather quit without an alternative than bear to keep working with them. That is exactly how I feel but don’t want them to know that.

I’ve now reached the point in my career where I have the experience, a good client base, and consistent referral sources that I’m ready to leave the small firm I’m with and start my own practice. My preference would be to find a partner and form a partnership because I’d like to have someone to bounce ideas off of and for some social interaction, but if I can’t find the right partner, then I’ll do it alone. Any advice on branching off to start my own firm - whether it be solo or with a partner?
