On Dec. 3, Texas Lawyer brought together managing partners from four Texas firms of various sizes to discuss the legal environment and the big issues they deal with on a daily basis. In a wide-ranging discussion, the firm leaders talked about mandatory retirement policies, the hottest practice areas, lateral hires, firm culture and whether, knowing what they know now, they’d still take on the managing partner role.
The managing partner roundtable took place in Dallas. The participants were Terry Conner, managing partner of Haynes and Boone in Dallas; Pollard Rogers, managing partner of Cantey Hanger in Fort Worth; Susan Schwartz, managing partner of Henslee Schwartz in Dallas; and J. Allen Smith, president of SettlePou in Dallas. A transcript of part of the discussion, edited for length and style, follows. The first installment appeared in the Dec. 27, 2010, issue of Texas Lawyer.
