Kirkland & Ellis Breaks Records with Massive Partner Promotions

Kirkland & Ellis, one of the nation's top law firms, has announced its largest-ever partner class, consisting of 205 new partners. This class is 6% larger than last year's record-breaking class and continues the trend of increasing partner classes each year. Despite economic challenges, Kirkland saw growth in revenue and profits in 2021. However, the firm's lack of diversity in its partnership ranks remains a concern, as it has not released photos of its new partners.
