Matches,
matches,
everywhere!
Biglaw
firms
across
the
Am
Law
100
are
handing
out
Milbank
matches
to
their
hardworking
associates,
inclusive
of
the
compensation
leader’s
year-end
bonuses
and
special
bonuses.
The
latest
firm
to
make
a
big
bonus
announcement
is
A&O
Shearman.
The
recently
merged
firm
—
formed
from
the
union
of
Allen

Overy
and
Shearman
&
Sterling
—
grosses
$3.5
billion,
with
nearly
4,000
lawyers,
including
800
partners.
The
Biglaw
behemoth
clearly
wants
to
make
a
showing
of
its
strength,
so
the
megafirm
is
matching
the
generous
Milbank
bonus
scale.
Here’s

like
