Associate Raises Sealed With A Kiss!
Another raise on a busy day for announcements.
Look, there aren’t any good puns to use off of Seward. Riffing on Alaska being Seward’s Folly seems very obscure for a story like this one. And something about Han Solo making the KISSEL run in less than 12 parsecs? I don’t even know how we’d work that in. So you’re getting a sealed with a kiss take and you’re going to like it.
Anyway, Seward & Kissel doesn’t play the Am Law 100 game so we don’t have those numbers to share, but it’s letting its compensation do the talking when it comes to reporting the health of the firm. They’re doing just fine.
As of July 1, associates will be making the now-prevailing market scale. The full memo is available here, but here are the salary figures:
