Relatively new partner here. Recently, I took my eye off the ball of a small closing (assuming, incorrectly, that the senior associate was on top of things), and the client became openly frustrated with us. It all ended up fine, but I never directly apologized. (I am also a woman and hyper aware of the female tendency to over-apologize.) Do I send the client a note/call to acknowledge the shortcomings and take responsibility? Or would that be met with annoyance?
I have some slight knowledge because I was a CASA (court appointed special advocate) for an autistic child in foster care. Feel free to message me 🙂
I will message you soon. Thank you!
