Company background

Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz is considered to be one of the top firms in the country for major mergers and acquisitions, antitrust and shareholder litigation and corporate restructurings.While many peer law firms have grown and become international brands, Wachtell has only a single, Manhattan office. It is one of the smallest firms in the AmLaw 100, but has highest per partner profits of any law firm and pays significantly above market rate for associates.The firm pays its partners through a lockstep system, meaning that compensation is tied to firm seniority, rather than hours billed or business brought in. The same is true for associate bonuses. This compensation model has led to the firm being called the "last true partnership.
