(Washington, D.C.) – The Hill, Politico and The Washington Post are among the outlets that have reported that, according to quarterly lobbying reports filed for the second quarter of 2014, Akin Gump is now the largest lobbying firm in the country by revenue.

Akin Gump partner Don Pongrace, who heads the firm’s public law and policy practice, told Politico, “While we’re really pleased that this result reflects confidence from our clients in our ability to advocate successfully on their behalf, we don’t view the numbers as an end to themselves. We continue to be driven by one primary goal: achieving outstanding results for our clients regardless of the issue we are addressing.”

This coverage follows on the recent arrival of an industry-leading health care policy team to Akin Gump (read more here and here) as well as of top-tier professionals to the firm’s communications and information technology practice (read more here).

Founded in 1945, Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP is a leading international law firm with more than 850 attorneys in offices throughout the United States, Europe, Asia and the Middle East.
