Attorneys

Our firm’s practice model rests on the expectation that all our attorneys will quickly gain substantial litigation and transactional experience and make significant contributions to the firm’s practice. Our goal is for all our attorneys to enjoy their professional life, have time for their families and personal interests, and earn a very rewarding income.

We maintain associate base compensation at a level that meets or exceeds the base compensation for associates working at leading global firms.  We also provide generous mid-year and annual bonuses based on overall firm profitability.  Bonuses paid to well performing associates exceed the benchmarks set by the leading New York law firms, are not class-based, and result from a merits-related assessment that compensates each associate based on performance.  Associates joining the firm after a judicial clerkship will receive a  signing bonus.  Because the cost of living in the firm’s location is approximately 50% of the cost of living in New York, the firm’s compensation practices are extremely rewarding for all attorneys.

Paralegals and Other Professionals

Paralegals and other professionals are a key part of our practice team.  We expect our paralegals and professionals to accomplish tasks independently using their judgment and experience, and we value and compensate them accordingly.  As with our attorneys, our goal is for our professional staff to enjoy a fulfilling work experience, have time for their families and personal interests, and earn a rewarding income.
