my current firm (unsurprisingly) can't match but the equity partner made clear he wants to do anything he can do to try to keep me. he promised a pay bump and to reduce my hours, and talked about the path to equity partnership and how that means a salary of over 2mil.

which is nice and all but not guaranteed and is just a pretty promise that is at at least a decade and a half away, if at all.

basically it comes down to:
1) stay with a modest raise but established working relationship with a great set of bosses, with the possibility of a huge payoff by the time my kid is in college, or

2) hefty pay bump in the short term in a new field of law at a more prestigious firm that would definitely lead to better exit options. option 2 of course still has the possibility of me doing well and moving up over time, but I'm unknown and untested at the new firm, so there's that.
