The top two spots, with Munger Tolles at No. 1 and Ropes & Gray at No. 2, are unchanged, while WilmerHale and Morgan Lewis each move up one spot to Nos. 3 and 4, respectively. There was a corresponding move down by Orrick, to No. 5 from No. 3. Skadden maintains the sixth spot, while firm Nos. 7 through 10 (Cleary Gottlieb, Akin, Willkie and Gibson Dunn) each moved up multiple spots.
The full A-List package can be found here. It recognizes firms based on a combination of factors, both financial and cultural: revenue per lawyer, pro bono commitment, associate satisfaction, racial diversity and gender diversity (the percentage of equity partners who are women), with RPL and pro bono given double weight. Each metric measures Am Law 200 firms' relative performance—a firm's score in a given category is based on its ranking among all 200 firms. Each category, as well as the overall score, is based on a 100-point scale. Additional data and other A-List rankings can be found at Law.com Compass.
