The lowest growth rate in 25 years, a depreciating currency and a turbulent stock market made 2015 a challenging year for the Chinese economy. But the demand for legal services showed few signs of slackening. China’s largest law firms saw growth not only in lawyer head count but in value as well.
This year we expanded our China revenue rankings from 25 to 35 top-grossing law firms in China. Their revenues totaled $5.5 billion in 2015. To compile the rankings, we asked Chinese law firms to report their gross revenue in calendar year 2015 alongside their full-time-lawyer equivalents. In a few cases, when firms didn’t provide census or financial figures, we made estimates based on our own reporting.
