In determining its list of the top law firms, The NLJ, one of the leading legal industry newspapers, surveyed hundreds of firms to identify the 350 largest. The lawyer totals were based on the average number of full-time equivalent attorneys for the period Jan. 1 to Dec. 31, 2013.

For over 30 years, the NLJ has published its list of largest firms. Plunkett Cooney, which was ranked 254 in 2012, moved 11 spots to 243 in the 2013 survey.
