"Biglaw firms are ranked in a multitude of ways, from gross revenue to size to quality of life and even prestige. But what about what may actually matter most, the number of people who are searching for these Biglaw firms on Google? Those searching could be associates and partners interested in salary information or looking to lateral, existing or potential clients, and even members of the media interested in tracking down a hot law firm story."
"This list is full of some of the heaviest hitters among Biglaw firms when it came to dealmaking and litigation in 2025. You may also note that this list is also full of firms that capitulated to Trump's unconstitutional executive orders or chose to fight against the administration in court, so of course they were some of the most searched firms throughout 2025."
Biglaw firms receive rankings across metrics including gross revenue, size, quality of life, and prestige. Google search frequency provides an alternative ranking reflecting public and professional interest. Searchers include associates and partners seeking salary or lateral information, existing and potential clients, and media tracking legal news. A list identified the 22 most searched Biglaw firms of 2025, presented alphabetically. Many top-searched firms were heavy hitters in dealmaking and litigation during 2025. Several of those firms either capitulated to or challenged Trump's executive orders, which increased public attention. Additional firms were categorized as "strongly searched" or "searched standouts." Anticipation exists for shifts in 2026 search rankings.
