July 15, 2021 Natalie Posgate

Dallas litigation boutique Lynn Pinker Hurst & Schwegmann is the latest Texas firm to join the associate salary hike that began spreading across Big Law firms nationwide earlier this summer.

In an interview on Thursday, Lynn Pinker name partner Mike Lynn and hiring partner Andrés Correa told The Texas Lawbook they are matching the associate pay scale set by Davis Polk & Wardwell. They confirmed that the Lynn Pinker pay scale is an exact match of Davis Polk’s, beginning with a $205,000 annual salary for their first-year associates (class of 2020) and $365,000 for the firm’s most senior associates (class of 2013 and older).
