The Am Law 200, a ranking of the 200 highest-grossing law firms in the United States, is reported by ALM business of law journalists and researchers. The first portion of the list, The Am Law 100, was published in the May 2019 issue of The American Lawyer. The Second Hundred, featured in this issue, consists of firms ranked 101-200 by their gross revenue. Most law firms provide their financials voluntarily for this report. Some choose not to cooperate, so we make estimates based on our reporting. But all data is investigated by our reporters.

If we discover we made an error in reporting a previous year’s financials, we correct the numbers and base the percentage changes in future years on restated numbers.
