A new website, Rate A Partner, is generating some buzz in the legal community. Users of the site (presumably associates, clients and/or co-partners) are encouraged to write candid reviews of partners at law firms with whom they have had experience.
As best I can tell, users have to register on the site but they remain anonymous. I stumbled across one review that described a lawyer as, "Lazy, unpleasant, unhelpful, foul mouthed. Have heard he treats his associates very badly whilst schemeing for his management career." Ouch. Something tells me we haven't heard the last of this site. Stay tuned.
