| Methodology/Sources: |
How The American Lawyer Reports Law Firm Financials - The Am Law 200 is reported by staff
members at ALM's publications throughout the United States, including The American Lawyer, the
Connecticut Law Tribune, Daily Business Review (Miami), Fulton County Daily Report
(Atlanta), The Legal Intelligencer (Philadelphia), Legal Times (Washington, D.C.),
New Jersey Law Journal, New York Law Journal, The Recorder (San Francisco), and Texas Lawyer.
Most law firms provide their financials voluntarily for this report. Some refuse to cooperate, so
reporters call partners and calculate revenue and profits. But all data -- whether it comes officially from
the firm or not -- is investigated by the reporters. In the event that an error in reporting is discovered,
The American Lawyer will correct the numbers and base the percentage changes in future years on restated
numbers.
