Top 25 Biglaw Firm Makes Associates Very Merry With Big Holiday Bonus Checks – Above the Law

The
winter
holidays
are
just
around
the
corner,
but
Biglaw
firms
still
have
ample
time
to
give
their
associates
the
greatest
gift
of
all:
More
money.
Which
firm
is
the
latest
to
let
its
attorneys
unwrap
cold,
hard
cash?

That
would
be
Sullivan
&
Cromwell.
After
bringing
home
$1,864,290,000
gross
revenue
in
2023,
the
firm
came
in
at
No.
24
in
the
most
recent
Am
Law
100
ranking.
S&C
has
now
spoken
out
on
year-end
bonuses.
The
firm
doesn’t
publish
memos
related
to
compensation,
but
instead
sends
out
individualized
links
to
its
attorneys.
According
to
our
sources,
the
firm
is
following
the
market
and
matching
Milbank’s
generous

year-end

and

special

bonuses.
Here’s
what
the
bonus
scale
looks
like
at
SullCrom:

    of
    2024
