NALFA conducted a survey of partner hourly rates in bankruptcy cases.  NALFA examined dozens of court filings in bankruptcy cases over the past couple years.  The following results of our survey are the average of partner hourly rate ranges in major legal markets:

2017: $1005-$878
2016: $921-$807
2015: $886-$783

Key findings:  Not only have partner rates increased every year, but the variance (i.e. the range of rates) has increased as well.
