Firm achieves highest ranking ever at Number 3, boosted by near-perfect score in associate satisfaction

TheAmerican Lawyer magazine’s annual A-list ranking has just been issued and Milbank, Tweed, Hadley & McCloy LLP was named the Number 3 most elite law firm in the country based on its combined scores in four separate areas of performance: financial success, pro bono commitment, diversity and associate satisfaction.

Milbank has been a regular on Am Law’s A-List for the past decade – the magazine highlights only 20 winners for its short list of the nation’s most well-rounded and prestigious firms. Milbank has been included among the Top 10 picks since 2011, and this year’s third place selection was its highest ever, in part reflecting a substantial jump in Milbank’s associate satisfaction numbers for the past year. The firm scored 195 out of a possible 200 perfect score among associates rating their job satisfaction of working at the firm.

Further completing the picture, Milbank scored 193 for its pro bono work; 188 for its commitment to diversity; and 180 for reported revenues per lawyer - an overall score of 1,129 points.

As Am Law’s editors note in announcing their A-List picks, “These firms are firing on all cylinders.”
