The Top Law Firms In The Usa

The top law firms in the country are based in Ohio, Pennsylvania and Florida.


Bigger does not always mean better, and one of the top-rated law firms in the United States is a testament to this. Duane Morris LLP, based in Philadelphia, only employs about 700 lawyers. However, the firm was rated as the third-best law firm in the U.S. by Martindale, which ranked the top firms according to visibility. According to the ratings, Greenberg Traurig is the top law firm, while Jones Day is second.

Greenberg Traurig LLP is a global law firm that has 23 U.S. locations and seven overseas. The firm, which was established in 1967, features almost 1,800 lawyers who specialize in more than 50 practice areas. Greenberg Traurig's commitment to diversity is evidenced by the fact that it ranks at the top of U.S. law firms in its number of minority partners and its number of female partners.
