One Response to Law firm economics, 2009-style

  1. Frank Wild says:

    Annually there is a survey and reporting of law firm “Profits per Partner.” For 2008 it appears as if AmLaw 100 partners had PPP in the range of $1-2 million. Does that mean than on average a partner at such a firm was paid $1-2 million? Is the PPP calculation really revenues less all expenses other than partner compensation? Are there any other charges or expenses that reduce the PPP — debt service, depreciation? Or is it as simple as all of the PPP is available to pay to partners?
