GrayRobinson is spoiling its shareholders and of counsel attorneys once again.
In commemoration of the firm’s 40th anniversary and an outstanding year, the firm gave each of its 150 shareholders and of counsel attorneys platinum coins at its annual meeting in Orlando last month.
Bestowing pricey coins has become a tradition at GrayRobinson.
Attorneys received one-ounce gold coins worth $1,100 last year. For the firm’s 25th anniversary in 1995, attorneys received a block of silver worth $2,000. This year the platinum coins are worth $1,500.
Some attorneys engraved the silver and framed the gold coins. Others have cashed them in.
The precious metal awards contrast with 1982 when the firm didn’t give any bonuses. The tradition started in better times in 1990.
"It’s a terrific tradition that we have at the law firm," said Byrd F. "Biff" Marshall, Jr., firm president and managing partner. "We have enjoyed it for the past 20 years."
