Biglaw Managing Partner Passes On Trials, Says It's 'Younger People's Work'
Briefly

Trial work is hard on you, mentally and physically. It requires a degree of mental and physical stamina that, at least for me as I'm in my 70s, was not something that I could look myself in the mirror and claim that I was sure that I had. Part of this is to clear the runway for the next generation, but also so the next generation knows what they should be doing with those generations that follow.
I'm a big believer that it's better to go before people want you to go. You don't want to be the person who someone says, 'Wow, he used to throw 95 miles an hour. Now he's throwing 80,' or 'He used to be good.'
