Keith Fullenweider Quoted in The American Lawyer: “Data Center Work, Litigation Fuel Another Record Year for Vinson & Elkins”

Media Coverage


The American Lawyer analyzed Vinson & Elkins’ financial results in 2025, highlighting how the firm reached a high-water mark for revenue, net income, profits per partner, and other key financial metrics.
