Welcome
to
our
daily
feature,
Quote
of
the
Day.
I
don’t
anticipate
there
being
a
mad
rush
for
these
special
bonuses.
Those
are
the
kind
of
things
that
we
tend
to
see
when
the
lateral
market
is
super,
super
high
and
firms
are
fighting
tooth
and
nail
against
their
competition
to
keep
good
associates.
—
Darin
Morgan,
an
associate
law
firm
recruiter
at
Major,
Lindsey
&
Africa,
in
comments
given
to
the
National
Law
Journal,
on
the
likelihood
that
Biglaw
firms
that
have
yet
to
announce
bonuses
will
match
Milbank’s
special
bonus
scale.
Thus
far,
two
firms
have
neglected
to
match
the
special
bonuses
while
others
have
attached
high
billables
for
special
bonus
eligibility.
