(New York) – For the fifth consecutive year, Akin Gump has been named to The American Lawyer’s A-List, the publication’s ranking of the 20 most elite law firms in the United States.

The A-List rankings are based upon law firms’ scores across several areas—financial performance, pro bono commitment, associate satisfaction and diversity. For the second year in a row, the list also includes a score for gender diversity among a firm’s partnership ranks.

“To be recognized once again as among the top firms in the country is validation of the approach we take across all facets of our operations,” said Akin Gump chairperson Kim Koopersmith. “I could not be more proud of our firm’s steadfast commitment to pro bono work, our efforts to attract and retain the best legal talent and, above all, our dedication to providing consistently exceptional client service. This recognition truly reflects the contributions of everyone across the firm.”

Founded in 1945, Akin Gump Strauss Hauer & Feld LLP is a leading international law firm with more than 900 lawyers in offices throughout the United States, Europe, Asia and the Middle East.
