Is it common practice for firms to pay for tail malpractice coverage for newly hired partners?

Depends on what the firm negotiates with the lateral partner, but as far as I have seen it not unusual.

Appreciate the input.

I like the tail malpractice typo ...but seriously it’s typical in my experience

Not at our firm. If you were coming on as a new partner, and there is no dire need at the firm for your services or persona, you should expect to pay your own way.

We do not. When I left a former firm I paid for a tail policy myself and it was not onerous. I did speak to a firm (that I did not join) that offered to pay for a tail policy.

I paid for my own, but for me it was nominal

Any advice as to how to help my other-half (who has bouts of anxiety and depression) apply to jobs? He’s going through a particularly rough patch at the moment. We had a big chat the other day which was great! However, even if we agreed that I’m doing everything I can for him (his words) it has to come from him (which we both agreed). He’s having a real mental block (I think with writing cover letters mostly) he describes staring at the screen feeling incapable. Any suggestions?

Hello fine people,
I have a question. I am a GDS employee wishing to relocate to another country as EY country “x” employee. The plan to relocate to country x was already in motion, if not EY then another org. The EY partner from country x is very interested in having me join their team but not sure about my GDS partner because they will be losing billing and may not like it. Is there a way I can approach this with my leaders? Any advice is greatly appreciated.
