they're also like a shitlaw ID firm with some of their time constraints - like "only bill 5 hours on that MTD. yeah, we know it will take 35, but we can only bill the client 5 hours. just don't write down the other 30 hours." |

Seyfarth had a strong year in 2016, with a 6 percent increase in gross revenue and a 3 percent increase in profits per partner, according to the Am Law Daily. But sources told that publication and others that revenue for the first quarter of 2017 was below expectations.
ONE | BELOW AVERAGE | QUARTER |
