I’d love to hear from EAs who support a founding or managing partner in a national law firm environment. Do you enjoy the role overall? What expectations surprised you most once you started, and are there things you wish you had clarified earlier in the interview process? I’ve heard these roles can become very high intensity, so I’d appreciate insight from those with firsthand experience supporting senior legal leadership. Thank You.
