Strong performance in litigation, corporate and real estate led to an extraordinary year for Dallas-based Jackson Walker, with gross revenue up 11.3 percent, and net income improving by 26.2 percent compared with 2015.
“It was just a good solid year in growth in each of our largest three practice areas,” said Wade Cooper, the firm’s managing partner, who is based in Austin. Litigation improved by about 9 percent in 2016 because of a few large litigation matters and the corporate practice was “up nicely” Cooper said. In addition, he noted that real estate posted double-digit increases for the third year in a row.
