Elite Boutique Announces Associate Bonuses That Completely Blow The Market Scale Out Of The Water - Above the Law
"Yesterday afternoon, D.C.-based litigation boutique Wilkinson Stekloff announced year-end bonuses that are 150% of market bonuses. Biglaw bonus season is in full swing, with firms stepping in left and right to match Cravath's year-end bonuses and Milbank's special bonuses, but things are about to get even hotter, because one of the boutiques is here to play. This firm went over the top in a major way - including on their bigger and better special bonuses."
""As we approach the firm's 10 th year anniversary in January, the firm continues to grow and evolve while staying true to its founding principles of providing exceptional client service in high stakes litigation and developing the next generation of trial lawyers," Brian Stekloff, the firm's founding partner, shared in a message to all of his colleagues at the firm. "We are deeply proud of the results you deliver, including in many impactful pro bono matters.""
"On top of those bonuses, let's not forget that the firm announced their own set of special bonuses back in April - ranging from $25,000 to $60,000 - before Milbank's special summer bonuses were even in play. This is what the firm's incredibly generous bonus scale looks like: Associates at Wilkinson will be earning $1,500 to $87,500+ more than those at Biglaw firms on the market bonus scale. Now THESE are big-time bonuses!"
Wilkinson Stekloff, a D.C.-based litigation boutique, announced year-end bonuses equal to 150% of market levels, alongside earlier special bonuses ranging from $25,000 to $60,000. Associates at the firm will receive between $1,500 and $87,500+ more than comparable Biglaw market bonuses. Year-end payments are scheduled for December 15, with counsel bonuses to be communicated separately. The firm is nearing its 10th anniversary and emphasized growth, client service in high-stakes litigation, and development of trial lawyers, including impactful pro bono work. The firm encouraged submission of bonus memos and enrollment in bonus alerts.
