The 2023 Law360 400

For the 10th year in a row, Law360 is pleased to announce our list of the 400 largest U.S. firms by headcount.

2022 was another banner year of growth for the Law360 400, with two of the top 10 firms bolstering their headcounts by well over 10% and the largest firm landing just shy of 3,000 lawyers. The largest 200 continued to expand at a steady clip, and smaller and midsize firms outpaced their growth rates of the year before. Client demand has since slowed, but so far, BigLaw has seen only a handful of layoffs, with experts predicting more subdued progress but no crisis in the months ahead.
