Abstract |
|
|
|
We explore large
law firms, their strategies and measures of their effectiveness.
Our findings suggest that optimal partner profitability is a
function of moderate expansion strategies. Contextual variables,
like baseline profitability and national origin, also have
important impacts on performance. |
