Skaddenfreude: Squire Sanders Raises -- Finally
In late March, we made a special shout-out to Squire Sanders & Dempsey. It hadn't participated in the latest round of associate pay raises, and several of you had complained about that to us. So we highlighted their presence on the LIST OF SHAME.
Weeks and weeks passed. But now, after taking its sweet time about it, the firm has followed suit. From a tipster:
Squire Sanders raised salaries last Friday. In Miami, they joined Holland & Knight, among others, at $130k for first years (a $15k raise). They raised senior associates by $20k.All associates in Miami are still well behind Weil Gotshal and Boies Schiller (at $160k), somewhat behind Hunton & Williams and McDermott Will (at $145k), and just behind Greenberg Traurig (at $135k). Apparently, they're content to be third-to-fourth tier. But something is something.
No idea how the raises shook out at other offices, but I do know that they occurred.
If you happen to know what Squire Sanders did in its other offices, please add comments to this post.

Lets get back to the important stuff: clerkship bonuses!!
I heard through the grapevine that Cravath matched the 50k bonus at their weekly partner meeting yesterday. Can anyone confirm that?
Fox Rothschild still hasn't raised, even though most other Philly-based firms have.
Any new members of the 50k clerkship club?
SSD is going to 130 in Cleveland, effective September 1.
Yes, more clerkship bonus information please.
...and less Cleveland information. Who am I kidding? We all love Cleveland information.
Cleveland rocks!
Any news on Cleary or DPW?
More info on Philly please - the market's doing some serious shuffling at the moment.
Cleveland associates are making as much as Miami associates ... that makes sense.
any word if baker in cleveland is going to raise at all? i hear they are still at $115 starting.
