Revenue per lawyer (RPL) ranks come from our Am Law 100 and Am Law 200 reports that appeared in the May and June issues this year. The financials are based on fiscal year 2009. We take a firm’s rank and invert it to come up with its points. For example, the number one firm gets 200 points, and the number 200 firm receives one point.

We collect information on a firm’s pro bono activity when we conduct our Am Law 200 reporting. We look at per capita hours and the number of firm lawyers who performed at least 20 hours of service annually to come up with the ranks. Then we invert the rank to come up with point values, just as we do with RPL.
