Big Law firm just announced a new policy effecitve immediately: Partners, non-equity partners, and Counsel can no longer send automatic email replies outside the firm when out of office. They say it's a bad look. My practice group/speciality has done a great job of covering for each other when one of us is out, so this is causing a lot of consternation.

If your plane is about to crash, then after you enter your time you can put in an OOO. Otherwise there is no excuse.

I am currently out of the office roaming the umbral plains of the netherworld chasing comments on version 8 of the MSA, upon the completion of which I shall be permitted to cross into afterlife and abandon this spectral form which has been forced to pursue the unfinished scholarship of my erstwhile mortal form. For immediate assistance, please email my legal secretary.

It’s all true. Partners, “Partners”, Of Counsels — all of it.

But here is the thing: Attorneys are--on rare occassion--away and responding in a matter of hours instead of minutes, and clients might actually want a heads up about that.

I literally had to have this fight with boss to allow my underlings to put up out off office emails. He HATES them.
