More on The Am Law 100

The buzz about The Am Law 100 continues. ALM’s newspaper in Washington, DC, Legal Times has its own list, the D.C. 20 (subscription required), which ranks the top firms in the DC area based on revenues in those offices. (The Am Law 100 ranks firms based on their firmwide revenues.) The top three firms were Hogan & Hartson, Wilmer Cutler, and Skadden—though Legal Times poses the probability that Skadden just might be on the verge of becoming the top firm soon. New York-based Skadden, Arps, Slate, Meagher & Flom topped the profits per partner rankings, with $2,280,000 per equity partner, on average, but Latham & Watkins was right behind them, with $2,270,000 PPP. Third-place ranking went to McDermott, Will & Emery, with a mere $1,520,000 PPP.

The 2008 Am Law 100 is available in searchable spreadsheet format through the ALM Research Store, and data from all previous years' surveys (starting in 1985) is available to ALM Research Online subscribers.
