[quote=Anonymous]Big law lawyer here. There are so many "buckets" for compensation its hard to tell, but for sure frustrating. Typically you might get a base salary, then a "bonus" on the revenue you generated (billable hours and originating hours collected), and then everyone splits the Firm's profit somehow. The split might be related to seniority, or percentage of ownership, or stupid crap like who likes you and who doesn't. So, DH probably got his base salary, and probably got the "bonus" related to worked hours, but the share of profit will be lower because the firm as a whole made less money. What is troubling is the step down on the Partner rung? That does seem concerning. They should want to keep people that work hard. Perhaps he is doing work for other partner's clients and the clients aren't his own?[/quote]
