Kevin Broyles, one of the founders of the law firm Fisher Broyles, makes a bold prediction: “By 2018 I think we’ll be an Am Law 200 firm.” Right now, the 14-year-old firm has roughly 160 lawyers, and its revenue has surged 65-70 percent in each of the last two years, according to the Atlanta-based Broyles. He’s projecting revenue of $50 million to $70 million next year, if this trend continues. (The cutoff for making The Am Law 200 this year was $85 million.)
What’s so remarkable about this claim is that Fisher Broyles has no centralized offices. Its lawyers are spread across 19 areas of the country, working mostly from home, or in some cases, in office space that they pay for out of their own pocket. Still, Fisher Broyles has many of the hallmarks of Big Law: It has recruited lawyers from Alston & Bird, Baker & McKenzie and King & Spalding, and the client roster includes Delta Airlines Inc., McKesson Corp. and Equifax Inc.
