THE FEATURES
Overview: Upheaval in the Ranks Some firms moved down. But they all moved. None of the firms on last year’s A-List returned to the same spot this year. Whether it was a result of a firm's spike in its associate satisfaction score, or a drop in its revenue per lawyer, the 2011 list is all about volatility.
Top of the Heap: The A-List's New Leader Hughes Hubbard edges out Munger Tolles to preside over the A-List.
Dewey's A-List Debut A spike in its associate satisfaction score propels Dewey & LeBoeuf onto the A-List.
