Hogan Lovells joined the $2 billion club in global revenues for the first time in 2017, despite what the firm described as a relatively slow start to the year.

Overall revenue grew nearly six percentage points, reaching $2.036 billion. Profits per equity partner increased 2.4 percent, topping $1.28 million, and revenue per lawyer ticked up almost 3 percent to just under $760,000, according to preliminary ALM reporting.
