Final salary answer. After taking tips from several anonymous tippers and a few emails from within the two firms, the final answers are very interesting:
Marquis Aurbach
pays $100k to start and requires 2000 minimum billables (Magic number of 50). Not bad at all M&A.
Hutchinson & Steffen
"do[es] not routinely hire new attorneys (associates that have no experience) straight out of law school. So, there really is no such thing as a starting salary. As far as I know, we have hired two new (no experience) attorneys in the last 6 years. Everyone else has at least one year. "
[thanks to GM, VD and Anonymous(es) for the tips]
I heard that Hutchison Steffen recently laid off several associates due to the economy. Can anyone confirm this?
ReplyDeleteH&S hasn't laid off anyone. We've actually hired a few new associates in the last few months.
