Ho Ho Ho! We Love These Raises And Bonuses!

Bonus season is always exciting around Above the Law. Mostly because it provides an opportunity to stretch our pun muscles with groan-inducing headlines that you all complain about (but secretly love… we know it).

And when bonuses come packaged with raises… all the better.

You know the drill by now. Hogan Lovells brought in $2,432,000,000 in revenue last year placing them 12th in the Am Law 100. The firm may not have absorbed Shearman this year, but it still ended up with an influx of talent from Stroock & Stroock.

Base compensation set to increase effective January 1.

Class of 2023: $225,000
Class of 2022: $235,000
