Why can't people be made partners, and this counsel, consultant, exec director being fancy designations given to lawyers, unless of course they are not lawyers and cannot be admitted to the partnership !

can someone define 'Counsel' designation in a law firm? And their nature of work?

Disappointed with S&R Management for these reasons:
A. Sending Rajat to Mumbai;
B. Not chasing mandates with a certain bullish zeal;
C. Losing fine talent year after year; and, most importantly
D. Doing an 'Amarchand', by making ''Counsels' - like, seriously!!!!
I hope that the next line are promoted properly.. For nothing else, it will demonstrate what opinion they hold of lawyers that are trained at their own offices from the beginning...
