How I Made Partner: 'It’s Valuable to Get Comfortable Being Uncomfortable,' Says Ryan Ulloa of White & Case

"It is too easy to get complacent working for the same lawyers, on the same matters, for the same clients.

But it’s more likely you’ll learn something you do like. Or something you can use in another case. Perhaps most importantly, it’s valuable to get comfortable being uncomfortable."
