Which Firms follow origination credit system (rewarding lawyers who bring in clients) apart from retainer ? What is the criteria, process and reward system?
I have never seen associates get credit (even if they bring in clients). It's only the partner
Boutiques/T2/T3 will give you a portion of the fee, T1s in most cases do not.

On a side note, if you have the option to retain a client, always do it for yourself first (or within your friends/family if you have a bar).
