The Partner Paradox: From Brilliant Technician to Strategic Client Partner Promotion to partner changes the rules. The work that earned the title is still valuable, but it is no longer the whole job. Technical mastery becomes table stakes. What clients value most is harder to learn on the fly: partners who understand their business, help them see around corners, and make every interaction a good use of their time. Wendy L. Bernero spent more than thirty years at the highest levels of legal marketing and strategy, including as Chief Marketing Officer at Baker McKenzie, Paul Weiss, and Fried Frank. In The Partner Paradox, she distills that experience into a fast-moving parable about a newly promoted litigation partner with seven business days to figure out what “value” really means to a major client’s CEO and general counsel. Readers will discover: <ul> <li>Why technical excellence is the price of admission, not the whole job</li> <li>How the Diagnose-Deploy-Design method turns client understanding into measurable business value</li> <li>How to lead high-stakes value conversations with CEOs and general counsel</li> <li>Why your marketing and business development colleagues are growth partners, not order-takers</li> </ul> Written for emerging partners, practice leaders, and the marketing and business development professionals who support them, The Partner Paradox shows lawyers how to shift from selling technical skills to solving business problems.

Clinical Legal Education

Most lawyers receive little or no training about effective advocacy to trial judges; instead, law schools tend to focus on appellate and jury trial advocacy. But the need for effective advocacy to judges has never been greater, as hearings before trial judges have increased, and judges' discretionary authority to resolve cases has grown. Most attorneys will spend more time attempting to persuade trial judges than they ever will attempting to persuade jurors or appellate court judges.
 This book provides insider information to practicing attorneys on how to effectively advocate to trial court judges. The authors, sitting United States District Court Judges, explain how the skills and tactics of effective advocacy to judges differs dramatically from those that are effective before a jury or to a panel of appellate judges. Their expertise will arm practicing lawyers with the insight and knowledge necessary to become more effective persuading those who matter most-trial judges.
