The Associate Attorney starting base salary is $90,000, with earnings up to $110,700 per year. The stated salary range is $66,560–$110,700; actual pay may vary based on experience, location, and other job-related factors permitted by law. Full-time employees are eligible for health insurance with an optional HSA, short- and long-term disability, dental and vision insurance, life insurance, healthcare and dependent care FSAs, a 401(k), vacation, sick time, and an employee assistance program. Additional voluntary programs include accident, life, disability, long-term care, critical illness and cancer, and pet insurance. Commuter and transit programs may be available in certain markets.
