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.”
