Legal Commentary

Dying of curiosity about the 2008 AmLaw 100?

The full story goes up tonight on The American Lawyer's website, but you can get a sneak preview at 3 p.m. when editor-in-chief Aric Press presents a free webinar, "The Numbers and What's Behind Them."

Press will offer key insights and analysis about what factors have influenced this year's numbers. Which firms generated the most revenue? Which are the fastest growing? Which are losing ground? Which have the strongest partner-per-profit ratio.

"This Law Firm Golden Age has been fueled by increased demand and unrelenting annual rate hikes.? says Press. "Partners have reaped record profits, partly by hard work, and partly by pulling up the ladder behind them: The firms are making fewer new equity partners. With the economy turning sour it?s doubtful that the extraordinary run that the big firms have enjoyed can continue.?

The webinar went live at 3 pm today.
