Among Second Hundred firms—those ranked 101 to 200 on The American Lawyer’s list of the nation’s top grossing firms—only a small group scored positive financial results that belie their size. For many of the others in 2013, flat results were the new success story, according to our latest survey. Typically, these firms tend to be elite specialists, smaller firms in major markets or big regional players. Overall, gross revenue was up 2.6 percent, revenue per lawyer climbed by 2.5 percent, and profits per equity partner improved just 0.7 percent. We tell the tales of seven firms among this group that had remarkable years, and offer comprehensive data for each firm in the Am Law 200.
