Depends, on the partner an the procedure you are about to undergo. The retainer sucks it up and works from home if the partner is kind enough. If the the partner is a hotheaded hotshot then you might need to suck it up a bit more.
Otherwise if you are staffed with a partner who does txns of less than INR 100Cr. but acts as if they are sakshaat "Blackrock/KKR", then you MIGHT have a bit of trouble and MIGHT need to give the partner a reality check (do this at your own risk, it certainly helps if you are better at your job than the partner).
There is noone kinder than the one who gives a reality check to, and exposes the mediocrity of, the partner.
