EVERYBODY!
Biglaw
firms
continue
to
follow
Milbank,
matching
the
compensation
leader’s
year-end
bonuses
and
special
bonuses.
Akin
is
one
of
the
latest
firms
to
announce
a
Milbank
bonus
match.
The
firm
brought
in
$1,369,427,000
gross
revenue
in
2023,
putting
it
at
No.
36
on
the
Am
Law
100.
Here’s
what
the
bonus
scale
looks
like
at
Akin:
As
usual,
the
firm
will
award
“exceptional”
bonuses
to
associates
who
had
“exceptional”
performance
this
year
(i.e.,
very
high
productivity).
Congratulations
to
everyone
at
Akin!
