Australia’s hyper-competitive $23 billion legal industry is served by 76,773 lawyers, only a small percentage of whom are partners at law firms. Nevertheless, movement within this cohort has an out-sized effect on the shape and client base of law firms as they jockey for position with clients. Whether in search of growth or as a defensive response to partner defections, firms make significant investments to acquire partners in specific practice areas and/or geographies that reflect changing market conditions.
Alpha Creates tracks the movements of partners between firms each financial year. In a human capital-intensive market such as FY19 was, assessing partner moves sheds light on which firms are acquiring partners in order to compete for market share.
