I am in a litigation field and my book has been much slower to grow. Happy to chat further if you are looking for perspective from this side!

Yes, looking for litigation perspective! Would love to chat.

So you went from 0 to $1million in one year; or had you had some origination as a senior associate approaching partnership?

~1.1-1.2 M.

Around $1MM. Probably depends on practice area. I’m M&A.

1.2 I think I did. It’s really not that hard. The challenge is growing it. (I’m corporate)

It really depends on the area of law, size of firm, etc.

1.5 in corporate. Large firm.

I learned the hard way that if you are at a big firm your book is probably smaller than you think it is. I am at a low amlaw100 firm and as a 2nd year partner my book is about $900k. Its been hard to get there though and basically started at zero when I lateraled from another big firm.
