Assuming you’re still junior enough, just ask. You’re probably working closely with that team already so just start by taking on more of their tasks (ie, want to see if I can help you guys out on this opinion/schedule) on deals you’re already on.

I’ve been having a bit of trouble working with one partner at a new firm. There are definitely things I can/need to work on for improvement, but I’ve been practicing for four years and have had no trouble with other partners/peers before. This partner sent an email to me with bills for one client of his/hers I worked on and now looped in a practice management person to have a ‘management call’ (prob to talk about billing less..) Should I be looking for other opportunities?
