Is it harder to become a partner at a law firm or at a financial services firm?
Just out of curiosity, I am guessing for both roles the banker or lawyer has to prove himself.

The cock you have to suck at either place is just as hard.
I think the consensus is that it's harder at a law firm.
At the very least, I'm sure it's a more boring process. That I can guarantee.
Can't speak to law in detail but it always strikes me as a more long, drawn out process. Finance at least is a quick death if you suck at it and lose money. It does have that going for it. And if you make gobs of money, you'll be a partner in no time. So it depends more on the person as to which is harder.
Finance is also pretty cut and dry: if you suck, you're out the door very quickly. Lawyers linger on for DECADES in some cases, hoping to get a big score. If I came from a rich/powerful family, I'd have done law, but I don't so finance it is.
