PeopleSoft's capitulation to Oracle Corp.'s hostile takeover brings to an end 18 months of bitter drama -- and a feast of work for area law firms.

Associate Salaries: The War is Over

It goes without saying that the associate salary wars are over. Firms have responded to a drop in business and a glut of talent with salary freezes and cuts, or even a wholesale revamping of pay scales. And some industry experts predict that market rates will blur further as more firms shift from lockstep models to merit-based compensation.
