Last Weil And Testament — See Generally

Last Weil And Testament: Weil Gotshal will close up shop after 95 years, following a partner exodus and a failed merger. The farewell message to associates promises up to 90 days of salary and benefits, January bonuses for those who stick around, and a reminder to keep billing.

Should Auld Salaries Be Forgot: Fenwick & West will move associates on its 1,950-hour track to the $235K salary scale effective January 1, 2027.

Pay The Piper: DLA Piper matched Milbank’s $235K scale and summer special bonuses, then added enhanced bonuses worth up to 50 percent of market for every 100 hours an associate bills beyond 2,000.

Requesting A Mulligan: Hours after Judge Ana Reyes enjoined the administration from felling more trees at East Potomac Golf Course, Trump announced on Truth Social that the course will close for renovation on November 15.

Comey Again?: Just as we learned that Judge Jesse Furman ordered Maurene Comey reinstated with back pay over her unlawful firing, the DOJ unsealed its third attempt to prosecute her father, this time over an alleged 2016 leak charged through a waiverless information in a questionable bid to avoid the statute of limitations.

One More Thing: Jack Newton closed his ClioCon keynote with an Apple-smooth demo that carried a matter from AI-answered intake call to asking the client for a review. But as Clio adds more features, one has to wonder what’s going to be left for the partners.
