[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can he look into joining another firm as a non equity partner? My BFF does this. She works a 2/3 schedule (which is still 40-50 hrs), isn’t responsible for bringing in business and still makes 500k +. I don’t know her exact salary but I know it is over 500j and that one year she made over 700k.

This sounds like a unicorn job. How did she find this?[/quote]

+1.  Those numbers sound very high for a part time non-equity partner.  Are you sure those are right?[/quote]

I’m not the PP but I always assumed non equity partners were making at least 500k. The equity ones make 7 figures easily right?[/quote]

If in are talking the very best firms, then yes you are making 7 figures, at least after a bit of time as a partner.  But at a lot of places that would definitely be considered Biglaw, those numbers are too high unless the person has clients or something else unique that warrants higher pay.  Non-equity partners often don't make much more than associates.  (Also at many truly top firms, there are no non-equity partners.  "Counsel" at these firms basically play the same role.)[/quote]
