We can now compare data about New York’s 1 percenters (as in income, in case you need reminding) against this year’s Am Law 100 rankings — NLJ affiliate The American Lawyer ‘s list of the largest law firms by revenue.
It doesn’t take much to be a 1 percenter if you’re a large-firm partner or investment banker in New York City. According to Crain’s, $600,000 is the magic number to join this club in that city (you only need $400,000 to qualify nationally). Crain’s reports that 35,432 New York residents belong to this elite group.
