Hi, transplant from BigLaw in NYC and I’m looking to lateral into a Chicago form of similar caliber.

Can anyone tell me more about the "Counsel" and "Senior Counsel" positions at law firms? I've seen many attorneys in those positions under different circumstances (some are partners wanting less work, others are associates who didn't become partners). Just wanting to know a bit more.
