Tallahassee, Fla. – May 26, 2020 – GrayRobinson was featured as one of the top earning lobbying firms in Florida Politics’ "First-quarter lobbying compensation reports hit new highs, though recession looms." GrayRobinson, which rounded out the top-5 based on lobbyist compensation reports for the first quarter of 2020, was the only firm that is also a full-service law firm.
As noted in Florida Politics, "GrayRobinson rounds out the top-5 with median earnings of $2.1 million, including $1.15 million in legislative lobbying pay and $955,000 in executive branch earnings. The performance shows continued growth. Led by lawyer-lobbyist and former House Speaker Dean Cannon, GrayRobinson narrowly missed the top-5 last year with overall earnings of $7.68 million. Though it’s unclear how and to what extent the pandemic will impact the lobbying industry, GR’s first-quarter reports put them on track for another year of increased earnings. GrayRobinson may have earned as much as $3.43 million last quarter — a higher peak than the No. 4 firm. At a minimum, Cannon and the lobbying team netted $770,000."
