Help needed! I’m negotiating my raise this year (for the first time). It would be extremely helpful if any comparatively placed attorneys would be willing to disclose their salaries for me to use as ammo 😜 Looking for these parameters:
Nashville - 3-4 YOE - Big Law (L&E most helpful, e.g. Littler, Ogletree)

You’re in big law, but are negotiating your salary?

I will be advocating for a higher raise because I am underpaid for Nashville big law market. Let me clarify, our raises are lockstep/scale but vary based on locality. The scale for Nashville is too low as compared to our competitors here. My RMP will be raising this to the management committee on my behalf and it will be helpful if I can show comparative salaries.

I can assist on basically all of this. DM me

Been passed over for promotion twice (had support from multiple partners both times). Received the top performance rating every year since joining the firm (6 years), which I’ve heard is rare. When passed over, the partners say there were others who have been waiting longer (not necessarily with the highest ratings) and that I should “keep doing what I’m doing” and basically wait my turn. Anyone else face this and have any suggestions/guidance?

This is the most basic question, so yep, I’m asking you to take it easy on me when you reply. I have been practicing for about 5 years total. I have been in civil practice for 2 years.

I know networking is key but do you have some thoughts/suggestions on how to make an exit...crying at therapy is becoming too much.
