For the 13th time, WilmerHale has been recognized among the nation's top law firms in the 2016 edition of The American Lawyer's A-List. This prestigious top 20 ranking showcases WilmerHale at the 10th slot among standout firms that have excelled in four distinct categories: financial success, pro bono commitment, diversity and associate satisfaction. Specifically highlighted this year, was the firm's associate satisfaction score, rising from last year.

WilmerHale managed financial gains in spite of what The American Lawyer characterized as slow growth for the industry overall in 2015, with a leveling off of demand for legal services and continuing global uncertainty in core markets. The firm attributes the continued robust performance to a strong and diverse client base and the pursuit of a core strategy concentrated on a select range of areas in which the firm leads the market.
