A Message From the Editor

Good Morning. We have several stories about partners today, including one about the emerging pay war in Australia, another about equity and non-equity promotions at Paul Weiss, and a third about the highest-paid partner at Macfarlanes breaking the £4M barrier. Also, please check out our story about the DLA Piper partner in Germany who is also a pro football referee. And on a more serious note, we have a story about the potential legal impacts of the fall of Assad in Syria.

– Lisa Shuchman, Executive Editor
