Nonequity Partner Ranks Still Swelling

Mark Silow was quoted in the New Jersey Law Journal article, "Nonequity Partner Ranks Still Swelling." Full text can be found in the May 7, 2015, issue, but a synopsis is below.

After a consistent growth in numbers, nonequity partners now make up around half of all partners in top New Jersey law firms and branches. 

At Fox Rothschild's Roseland, Lawrenceville, Atlantic City and Morristown offices, the amount of nonequity partners is at a relatively low 27.9 percent compared to the firmwide nonequity partnership ratio of 69.2 percent. 

According to Fox's firmwide managing partner, Mark Silow, the New Jersey offices were added earlier on when the nonequity tier was used less. He said that the, "biggest change for us over the past few years has actually been making fewer equity partners."
