Continuing a run of solid financial years, Seyfarth Shaw last year saw gross revenue jump nearly 6 percent in 2016, to $623.5 million, while profits per partner rose nearly 3 percent, to $1.05 million.
The Chicago-founded Am Law 100 firm also added a significant number of lawyers last year. Seyfarth’s head count grew 6.1 percent, to 847, as the firm’s equity partner ranks expanded 3.1 percent, to 198. The results could see Seyfarth bump up a few spots from its No. 58 ranking on last year’s Am Law 100, with two firms who ranked just ahead of it last year, Bryan Cave and Locke Lord, reporting gross revenue just beneath that of Seyfarth in 2016.
