Anyone know what partner comp formula and trajectory looks like for firms with sizable ECVC practices? Gunderson, Cooley, WSGR, Goodwin, Orrick, Perkins Coie, Silicon Legal, Fenwick, DLA, Latham, etc.

For example, have heard that WSGR partners are immediately equity partners, Silicon Legal are non-equity partners, Gunderson is on a points system, Perkins provides significant incentives for originations, etc. but looking for more precise details. Thnx in advance!

Can only speak to Goodwin. There are two tiers here. Not sure exactly how the comp works tbh.

like

Only one tier of partnership at Gunderson, all equity. Don’t know how the comp works.

One tier Cooley

You can see whether one tier or two on NALP.

All equity partnership at DLA too, comp distributed on a points system. My impression is that of counsel are more or less equivalent to non-equity partners at other firms. Lots of transparency which I really like.

Thnx. Any specifics on how the points are calculated?

And is ballpark of counsel comp $600k to $700k starting, maxing out at $900k or $1M based on tenure and hours?

We’re moving to LA next month and looking to buy our first home in about 18 months. We’re planning to do 10% down on a $1.8M -$2M home. Would it be smart to do a multi-unit so we can rent at least half of it? We’d live in at least a 2 bedroom unit. We’re new to the LA market, but I think there will always be a market for renters. Would it be better to use the money to buy a single family house with more rooms and Airbnb out the guest room? Any thoughts?
