Atlanta firm, Sutherland Asbill & Brennan, has raised starting salaries from $115,000 to $130,000. The firm has already raised pay in New York to $160,000 and in Washington to $145,000. The firm has not decided whether this $15,000 raise will affect all associates, or whether a raise will be implemented class-by-class. Sutherland’s pay increase comes on the tails of that of other big Atlanta firms like Troutman Sanders, Alston & Bird, King & Spalding, and Powell Goldstein.
