The largest firms in Texas promoted fewer new partnersin Texas this year compared with 2016, a lingering result of smaller first-year classes in years when firms tried to cope with the financial crisis of 2007-2008.

Nineteen of the 25 firms with the most lawyers in Texas made 75 new Texas partners for 2017, compared with 107 the year before. That’s a 29.9 percent decline for those 19 firms that have announced their new partners. In 2016, 23 of the 25 largest firms in Texas made 128 new partners, compared with 101 at those firms the previous year, a 26.7 percent improvement.
