Boutique
law
firms
are
really
showing
their
financial
prowess
this
bonus
season,
matching
Milbank’s
generous
year-end
and
special
bonuses,
time
and
again.
The
latest
boutique
to
announce
a
Biglaw
bonus
is
Ross
Aronstam
&
Moritz,
a
Delaware
litigation
firm
founded
by
lawyers
from
Wachtell,
Weil,
and
Kellogg
Hansen.
This
small,
specialized
firm
recently
entered
the
ring
to
match
the
latest
round
of
bonuses.
Here’s
what
the
bonus
and
salary
scale
looks
like
at
Ross
Aronstam:
There
are
no
hours
requirements
for
these
bonuses,
which
will
be
paid
on
December
15.
Congratulations
to
everyone
at
Ross
Aronstam!
