  • In-house legal roles pay has dropped significantly the past 3 years... So why does Sokol Associates Inc. only work on in-house roles paying a minimum of $200,000? We believe in attracting top-tier talent — individuals who are not just experienced, but who are also driven, innovative, and ready to tackle complex challenges. In today’s competitive landscape, high-quality professionals are demanding more than just a paycheck — they are looking for roles that reflect their skill sets and the value they bring to an organization. Here’s why we’ve set a threshold of $200,000 for base salary in our recruitment efforts: Attracting the Best Talent: The caliber of talent we seek is highly experienced, specialized, and results-driven. Professionals at the top of their fields expect compensation that aligns with their expertise and the value they deliver. By focusing on roles with a base salary above $200,000, we ensure we are engaging with the best of the best. Business Growth & Innovation: Professionals at this level bring critical skills, strategic thinking, and leadership capabilities that drive growth, improve operational efficiency, and spark innovation. They are essential to the success of our business and ensure we remain ahead of the curve in a fast-evolving market. Market Trends: The labor market has shifted significantly in recent years. With increasing demand for specialized skill sets in tech, finance, healthcare, and other industries, top talent understands their worth. Competing with the best in the industry means offering compensation packages that are aligned with market expectations. Investing in Excellence: By recruiting for roles with competitive base salaries, we prioritize quality over quantity. We want individuals who are passionate about their work, who add value from day one, and who understand that great talent deserves to be rewarded accordingly. In short, for us, it’s not just about filling a position — it’s about finding the right people who will drive the success of our company and help us reach new heights. Great talent deserves great compensation, and we are committed to making that happen.

  • In legal recruitment, October often marks the beginning of the busy season - for both lateral and in-house moves. This year, many law firms and a few rare in-house roles are opting to attract talent by offering to pay end of year bonuses as well as sign-ons. The extra short-term money is always nice, but it's important to make career shifts by projecting out at least 2 or 3 years. Make sure your platform and prospects will improve by making any move. Great recruiters should see the bigger picture, and at Sokol Associates, our primary goal is to place fulfilled and happy lawyers, imagine that! This is how we have stayed in business for nearly 35 years. Best of luck out there! We're always here to share market intel - just reach out to a member of our team
