The Associates Guide to Making Partner

“We teach ambitious associates how to think like partners, master business development, and create options for their future by mentoring, guiding and holding them accountable to their action plan - because making partner isn’t a dream, it’s a strategy.”

Your network is not just a list of names. It’s your career insurance policy. The more genuine, valuable connections you build, the more doors open. Relationship Capital is about cultivating trust, influence, and goodwill that pay dividends for the rest of your career.
People hire lawyers they like, trust, and remember. Building and protecting your Relationship Capital is what takes you from being a great lawyer to a Bad Ass Partner everyone wants on their side.
Here’s the brutal truth: partners make rain. If you can’t bring in business, you’re replaceable. RainMaking isn’t just selling—it’s solving problems for the right people in the right way. It’s developing relationships, understanding client pain points, and positioning yourself as the go-to advisor.
This pillar teaches you the strategies that turn conversations into opportunities and opportunities into revenue. Because at the end of the day, revenue talks—and that’s what makes you indispensable.
You know what the legal industry is full of? Brilliant lawyers who look and sound exactly the same. If you want to attract opportunities, clients, and advocates, you need to stand out on purpose.
Your brand is what people say about you when you’re not in the room. And if you don’t shape that narrative, someone else will. Magnetic Branding is about creating a clear, authentic, and compelling identity that makes clients and partners think of you first.
The game is won or lost between your ears. Most associates fail before they even start because they think like employees instead of owners. Partners think differently. They see the firm as their business, and every case, every client, every connection as an opportunity.
Mindset Mastery means:
If you don’t master your mindset, nothing else matters. Because you can’t outwork a weak perspective.
