TROUTMAN SANDERS has raised salaries for its first-year associates in Atlanta from $115,000 to $125,000, meaning the wave of pay hikes that started last week in New York has hit Atlanta in earnest.

Troutman’s chairman and managing partner, Robert W. Webb Jr., on Wednesday confirmed that the firm had raised pay in Atlanta and other offices. In New York and Newark, N.J., it matched the $160,000 starting salary posted by Simpson Thacher & Bartlett and other firms that sparked the trend. Atlanta-based King & Spalding has also matched the $160,000 salary for its New York office but as of Monday had not said it raised pay in its Atlanta office.
