Law Firm Rankings 2011: Vault Law 100

The 2011 Vault Law 100 is here! This year, more than 15,000 law associates rated law firms on a scale of 1 to 10 based on prestige. (Associates were not allowed to rate their own firms, and were asked only to rate firms with which they were familiar.) [Please note: this year's Vault Law Firm Associate Survey was conducted prior to the Hogan Lovells merger and both pre-merger firms appear on the rankings chart.] See methodology
