Don't fuck with this guy. He is in a better position to fuck your career up than you are to fuck up his. He may have made partner in a boom year and he may be coasting now, but he has enough juice to survive the useless-partner-cut over the pass few years.
Just finish this transaction for him, don't kill yourself and the next time he calls tell him you can't help him because you are swamped with work in your actual practice area.

You obviously work for a partner with no juice. I had similar happen to me and my highly-juiced partner doesn't want troubled partners disrupting one of his precious worker bees and getting in the way of keeping his clients happy...he simply said that I wasn't to work with troubled partner anymore and if troubled partner tried to give me work in the future to direct troubled partner to juiced partner.

Excuse me, but "proactive" and "paradigm"? Aren't these just buzzwords that dumb people use to sound important? Not that I'm accusing you of anything like that.
