Many law firms have a "two-tiered" partnership structure, in which some partners are designated as "salaried partners" or "non-equity" partners, and are allowed to use the "partner" title but do not share in profits.

Maduro & Sons established Maduro's Bank, the island's first commercial bank. In 1932, Curiel's Ban ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
