Standard counter depth for overlay cabinets?

From what I've read standard counter depth is 25 1/2" which is what I have. My base cabinets measure 24" deep not including the overlay doors which adds another 3/4". By the time the cabinets are leveled and hinges adjusted, they measure about 25 1/4" deep so I only have a 1/4" lip. Anything that drips off of the counter gets all over the cabinet faces. Is this typical? Do people with full overlay doors order deeper counters?
