It's very typical to negotiate a market EOY bonus when lateraling, though given that we're already into October they may just tell you to come over after you get your bonus from your current firm.
Whether there is a signing bonus for a 3rd year really depends on how hot the lateral market is and how desperate the firm is.
I negotiated both. I lateraled earlier this year. I got a sign on and negotiated my full bonus for prorated hours.
March and litigation. The rest you can feel free to DM 😊

I lateraled as a third year this summer and got both. I also negotiated guaranteed EOY bonus regardless of hours. I would say it depends on the market, your marketability, and the firm’s needs. Currently, I think it will be hard to negotiate for both. But considering that EOY is probably higher than what you would get for a signing bonus, it may be worth at least negotiating for guaranteed EOY bonus, depending on when you lateral and whether your firm already paid out your bonus.
