| | Methodology/Sources: | The Global 100 charts rank the world's largest law firms by revenue, head count, and profits per partner. The charts were compiled by The American Lawyer in cooperation with Legal Week in London. Though non-U.S. firms differ in structure from American law firms, a variety of steps were taken to level the playing field. A total of 113 firms were included on the 2007 Global 100 charts.
The Global 100 by Most Revenue chart ranks firms by gross revenue for their most recently completed fiscal year. Revenue and revenue per lawyer figures for U.S.-based law firms were obtained from The Am Law 100, except where otherwise noted. Revenue figures for law firms in Europe were from Legal Week's research. Australian and Canadian firms were surveyed by The American Lawyer. Revenue figures for all non-U.S. firms were converted to dollars using the average annual conversion rate as published by the U.S. Federal Reserve. Revenue figures are rounded to the nearest $500,000.
The Global 100 by Most Lawyers chart ranks firms by the average number of full-time-equivalent (FTE) lawyers at the firm in its most recent fiscal year. Most of the firms on this chart, but not all, qualified for the Most Revenue char
t.
Firms are identified as "international" if 40 percent or more of their lawyers work outside their home country. Firms identified as "national" have no more than 45 percent of their lawyers located in one region of their home country. The geographic breakdown comes from the 2006 National Law Journal survey of the 250 largest U.S. firms (the NLJ 250), or from the firm's Web site.
The Global 100 by Profits Per Partner: Only firms included on either the Most Revenue or Most Lawyers charts qualify for this chart, in which firms were ranked by profits per equity partner for the most recent fiscal year. Profits per equity partner figures are rounded to the nearest $5,000.Years available for purchase: 1997-2007 |
