The Mrs Robinsons of the legal world are out there but what would you do if one made a pass at you…?

Fortunately it has already happened to someone else and Sweet Hot Justice is on hand to drop some pearls on the subject: When Cougars Attack (at the Firm): Help!

I am a summer associate at the job of my dreams.  I know that when I graduate a year from now this is where I want to work and the way things are going I think they will have me.  The problem… last week at a firm-wide social event a very sexy recently divorced partner made very explicit and very obvious passes at me.  So much so that everyone within earshot was aware. Here is the kicker: The partner is the female and I, the (more then willing) summer associate, am a guy.  I guess my question is, does it make a difference if I entertain her ideas now versus waiting until the summer is over?

How about the third option – take a cold bath and forget about it. Find out what Sweet Hot Justice has to say on the matter.
