Your Firm

Attorney Benefits

We are pleased to offer to our attorneys a compensation and benefits package that is both comprehensive and among the very best offered by Midwestern law firms. We review our associates on an annual basis for salary adjustments and are committed to providing our associates with regular feedback on a less formal basis throughout the year. We award bonuses to our associates for exceptional performances. In addition, we offer employment with the expectation that our associates will become our partners, as evidenced by the fact that our associates are first eligible for elevation to partner status after only seven years of service, rather than 10-plus years of service that is the standard for other large Midwestern law firms.
