Any idea of associate comp/equity partner chances at “top” plaintiff side only firms like Cohen Milstein, Berger Montague, Hausfeld, Lieff Cabraser, etc.? Also curious what equity partners are making at these firms considering they all advertise billions in settlements.

Lieff associate comp is like 150-175; Hausfeld goes up to 185. Equity Partners at LCHB have a base of 300k initially, and eventually are cut loose to float on their capital distributions. Those can range anywhere from 300k in terrible years to over 1.5M for new equity partners and over 7M in a year for excellent years. I'd say it averages to a range of 700K-3M

they pay entirely differently than traditional PI as its antitrust/securities/class actions, economic injuries only. They all pay between 100-180k starting and yeah theres huge windfalls in class actions but they take years, and partner pay like PI is very vast compared to traditional biglaw

I currently work at a small PI firm in Atlanta were EVERYTHING is settled presuit. If we’re unable to settle, then it’s referred to another firm for litigation. This whole process seems very atypical to me and the attorneys rarely touch a file until the first liability offer is received. The paralegals handle everything from intake to drafting the demands. The attorney briefly skims (does NOT read) the demand packages and signs. Is this ethical?? Anyone else work at a firm that is run this way??
