The Full Am Law 100
Every firm on the list is extraordinary. From white-shoe legends founded before the Civil War to modern powerhouses reshaping the legal landscape.
Why Am Law 100?
The Am Law 100, published annually by The American Lawyer, ranks the 100 highest-grossing law firms in the United States. It is the gold standard for measuring law firm prestige, financial performance, and market power.
These are the firms that negotiate mergers worth more than most countries' GDP, defend Fortune 500 companies in existential litigation, and advise governments on policy that shapes the world. Their alumni sit on the Supreme Court, in the Senate, and in corner offices of every major corporation.
This page celebrates that excellence. Every firm here has earned its place through decades of brilliant work, relentless client service, and an unwavering commitment to the practice of law.
