In yet another example of the tremendous year tech and life sciences clients had in 2020, Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati joins a select few firms in seeing profits jump more than 40% and financial metrics across the board rise by double-digit percentages.

For the first time, gross revenue at the firm crossed the billion-dollar threshold, jumping 17.6%, from $961 million to $1.1 billion. Despite the addition of 38 attorneys in 2020, revenue per lawyer grew 12.5%, from $1.14 million to $1.29 million.
