A third law firm—DLA Piper—has broken the $2 billion barrier with its report of $2.1 billion in gross revenues last year.
The firm reported revenue growth of 18.7 percent for 2007, Legal Week reports.
“These numbers confirm that the firm has performed increasingly well across practices and key markets,” DLA Piper said in a press release. Firm leaders said the results reinforce the firm’s decision three years ago to become a leading business law firm on a global scale.
Also reporting revenues above $2 billion are Latham & Watkins and Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom.
