Akerman Cutting Associate Pay by 10 Percent, Say Sources

Akerman Senterfitt has announced it is cutting associate pay by 10 percent, according to sources familiar with the firm.

The firm is also said to be shifting away from lockstep raises and plans to implement a merit-based compensation system. One source said bonuses may zero out the pay cut's impact for high-performing associates.

And with lean state budgets, who will pay for a large law firm to help with disaster planning? Daniel Craig, head of Akerman's new practice group, says most states have crawled out of their budget hole, though he admits that most taxpayers don't want to see their money going to lobbying activities.

Shutts & Bowen is expanding in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., with the addition of three attorneys, including the head of Ruden McClosky's securities law practice group.
