Associate Salaries: Story of the Year?

It’s one of the most popular topics on the blog. Mention “salaries” or “compensation” and the links light up. In response to one of our last postings on the subject, a reader, “Judy,” suggested that we mention LawWages.com, a “comprehensive career portal and resource center” for the legal profession. Of course, our parent company, ALM Media, also sponsors the LawJobs.com site, which includes a salary calculator from Salary.com.

We reported last month on American Lawyer’s September feature and rankings having to do with associate salaries. And blogger Dennis Kennedy did a great round-up of links to on-going buzz about associate salaries (“Recruiting, Paying and Retaining Lawyers: Quite a Discussion Going”).

So, we’ll mention once again that we’re offering a spreadsheet of updated salary information for NLJ 250 firms and beyond. This file is free to subscribers, and free to anyone else who has purchased a product from the ALM Research Store recently. To get the link, just send an email to [email protected], asking for the Associate Salary Update.
