After a flat year for gross revenue and net income in 2014, Nixon Peabody rebounded with double-digit growth in 2015. It didn’t hurt that the firm ushered in last year by bolting on Chicago’s Ungaretti & Harris, scooping up 100 lawyers in the process.
Gross revenue grew 13.3 percent in 2015, to $461 million, while net income soared 23.2 percent, to $135.5 million. Revenue per lawyer also inched up 2.1 percent last year, to $725,000, as profits per partner skyrocketed another 19.1 percent, to $905,000.
