Survey Overview
Managing independent minded and talented law
professionals is always challenging. This is especially true when it
comes to their compensation, where perceptions of value may differ from market
reality.
Empsight's CLCM Survey has become the largest
in-house law compensation survey of its kind in the US. In 2009 it
included 170 Participants with an average participant revenue size in
excess of $23 Billion. The survey reports data on base salary,
annual bonus, long term incentives, and multiple sub-cuts. The survey also
provides useful legal spending and staffing analyses.
