    The American Lawyer's 2018 A-List

    Adele Carter | July 24, 2018

    Our ranking of the country's most well-rounded, elite firms.

  • The 2017 A-List

    McKenna Moore | July 27, 2017

    Our ranking recognizes the most elite law firms in America, as measured by their financial strength, pro bono commitment, diversity, associate satisfaction—and now a new factor, the percentage of women in the equity partnership.

  • Introducing the New and Improved A-List

    Gina Passarella | July 27, 2017

    We have simplified our scoring system and updated the A-List formula with a new metric: a score that ranks law firms according to their percentage of female equity partners.

  • The A-List Top 20

    americanlawyer | July 27, 2017

    This chart details the breakdown of how each of our 20 A-List firms fared in five key categories: diversity, pro bono, revenue per lawyer, associate satisfaction and the percentage of female equity partners. Scores for RPL and pro bono are weighted twice. This is the first year we have included a score for the percentage of female equity partners. It is also the first year we switched our scoring system to a 100-point scale.

  • The A-List Runners Up

    falconadmin | July 27, 2017

    These 20 firms came close to making it onto our A-List. Here is how their scores stack up.

About the Survey

The A-List, published annually in July, is based on rankings taken from four ALM surveys that ALM Legal Intelligence conducts throughout the year. Both revenue per lawyer and pro bono ranks are taken from the Am Law 200 while the Diversity Scorecard) and the Midlevel Associates Survey provide the diversity and associate satisfaction ranks, respectively. The A-List formula provides a collective measurement of the most successful and committed firms in the United States.
