Know a few partners who got fired for padding the invoices to the client over the course of a few years. They got caught by a first year associate who was asked to draft an invoice, said it didn’t tie to actuals, and reported it.
To my knowledge it has to be something pretty serious like sexual assault, embezzlement, etc
Essentially yes. It’s costly to buy out partners unless they do something that super egregious.
Embezzlement
Dip in sales
Or not make target numbers on business you’re bringing in
Chief
Embezzlement. Screwing up a project that makes national news (typically state or fed gov)
Anytime the cost of keeping them outweighs the cost of buying them out. Could be anything from a crime down to saying something socially insensitive in public.
If you do something that causes the firm to get sued.
