I am in the process of doing that. I have asked for more with the practice area that I desire to transition to. This entails working longer hours and having tighter deadlines with more workload. So far I am getting more involved and has worked.
I tried, the partner I worked for said no, and I told him I was likely going to leave and left a few months later.
Came back to the firm a few years later when the partner I wanted to work for had an opening.
The firm welcomed me back with welcome arms, I think because I was transparent about the whole thing.

A few people at my firm did this, either by getting in really well with important partners or by requesting to move to a team they’d previously successfully worked with that had a really serious/desperate need.
