Ending a 26-year run, New York’s Chadbourne & Parke fell off The Am Law 100 this year and onto the Second Hundred, after its gross revenue dropped 5.1 percent, to $290.5 million. Although revenue per lawyer rose 3.3 percent, to $780,000, on reduced head count, profits per partner slid 6.1 percent, to $1.24 million.

Chadbourne came on to The Am Law 100 in 1987, the list’s inaugural year; it ranked 96th in that survey’s gross revenue rankings. The firm peaked at number 41 on the 1997 list, when it was best known for its representation of British American Tobacco plc in product liability litigation.
