reply Depends from partner to partner. Just make sure you are getting into a transactional banking team and not the one which actively mixes Restructuring/Insolvency i.e. RP mandates and allied litigation advisory work for more lucrative growth + pay.

reply Tax lawyers earn less in corporate law firms but if you have your own practice, then litigating at CIT and ITAT will get you pretty much same money as a partner at a tier 1 law firm. Without your work life balance going for a toss.
