What would be a reasonable range of pay to expect as an of counsel or non-equity partner at a mid-law AM200 firm? I’m nearing the point where my firm will start looking at me for promotion to NEP, and I have no clue what to expect comp-wise. By comparison, associate pay was very transparent based on hours.

Partially depends on market. Are you in NYC or another major market? What is the top comp for associate pay at your firm?

Counsel and NEP comp is all over the place after leaving associate lockstep.

They may have a set range for non-equity partners. If not lock step, you should get paid more or bonused up based on billable hours and revenues generated on your own billings or work that you originated and brought to the firm.

Working at a boutique transactiona firm. First year did not receive much guidance and made a few errors, one of which could have been a deal but ended up being fine but overall I worked hard, billed hours above target and showed a willingness to learn. Three main partners in the group. I feel like I may have been written off by the one partner, still get a fair amount of work from another and the third has never really given work but has a rep for doing things alone or using seniors.
