The US IPO market delivered another landmark quarter in the 2Q21, with 115 IPOs raising $40.7 billion. It was the busiest quarter for IPOs in over two decades, a record that was just broken last quarter, as well as the biggest second quarter by proceeds ever. With every IPO requiring at least two legal firms, one for issuers and one for underwriters (and some hiring as many as five), the 2Q21 saw 301 legal engagements with 96 law firms, or 460 with 113 firms including SPACs.
