Sullivan & Cromwell, Debevoise & Plimpton and Simpson Thacher & Bartlett have all rolled out special fall bonuses for their associates, as some firms continue to wade into the bonus war.

While firms such as Kirkland have opted out of the annual bonus race, several other firms including Milbank and Hueston Hennigan have rolled out fall bonuses matching first mover Davis Polk & Wardwell, ranging from $7,500 to $40,000.
