Welcome
to
our
daily
feature,
Quote
of
the
Day.
I
think
we’re
starting
to
see
more
do
it.
It’s
a
very
deliberate
move
on
the
part
of
these
firms
to
signal
to
the
market
and
potential
new
members,
‘Hey,
you
come
here
…
you’re
going
to
make
even
more.’
—
Jeff
Lowe,
a
D.C.-based
recruiter
at
CenterPeak,
in
comments
given
to
the
American
Lawyer,
on
the
massive
bonuses
that
boutique
law
firms
have
been
awarding
to
associates
this
year,
oftentimes
offering
bonus
compensation
in
excess
of
that
offered
by
the
already
generous
Milbank
year-end
and
special
bonus
scales.
