Unless you are talking about Susman, Boies type plaintiff firms, not BLBG, G&E, RG etc.

Need to know more about this "top" plaintiffs firm. Market? What type of work? Is it one of the "clerkship basically required" super prestigious joints like Altshuler or Leiff Cabraser?

Is there any info out there on salary structure at these pure plaintiff firms? I don't think Lieff pays first years 160, or even close.

not having to bill your hours would be worth it alone so long as the compensation is close

compensation isn't close except for boies, susman.

i'm guessing even the best actual plaintiffs firms (lieff, cohen millstein) are sub-100 to start.

oh, that's more than i would have guessed. lieff is currently 100ish, and that's in SF. I guess they're lagging.

I think Altshuler and Sanford Wittels are 60-70ish.

Most of the people ITT are mentioning firms (Susman, BSF, Quinn) that do plaintiff's work that you clearly aren't considering if you are contemplating a v30 alternative.

If your situation is something like a strong regional (e.g., Bondurant Mixson Elmore) vs. a v30 (e.g., Paul Hastings, Jones Day), if you're dead set on litigating then I would recommend taking the former.

i think you can get great experience at a plaintiffs firm, but it will raise eyebrows for future legal jobs, even for fed gov law enforcement type jobs.

The example I gave nicely highlights the kind of plaintiffs firm that OP would do wise to pick over the v30. Excellent lit boutique that does plaintiffs work but wouldn't come with the issues you mention.

Quick story. A bro of mine, 1 year a head of me went to a real top plaintiffs firm. He was third in his class , won moot court national thing, was on law review, did dat coa shit. Went to this plaintiffs firm and then recruited the fuck out of me to go too. I ended up five in my class, won moot court thing the next year after he was gone, law review, same clerkship and went to big national firm because starting salary was about 100k higher. There isn't a day that has gone by that I didn't regret it. He ended up clearing 5 mil the year after I began practice, and now takes like one case a year. I represent midsize companies and rich dudes who want to evict people from their investment properties. He won.
