Best Law Firms rankings are determined through a comprehensive, multi-layered evaluation process that incorporates client and professional references, firm-submitted data, lawyer evaluations, and leadership interviews. The 2027 research included input from over 25,000 firms, 30,000 lawyers, and more than 109,000 client submissions, resulting in 30 million evaluations. Eligible firms must have at least one lawyer recognized in the current edition of The Best Lawyers in America® in the relevant practice area and jurisdiction. Rankings are grouped into tiers to reflect meaningful distinctions in performance rather than sequential order, ensuring a rigorous and transparent assessment of professional excellence.
