To our readers:
Welcome to Lawyers Weekly’s annual review of the state’s Largest Law Firms. We have been surveying the 100 largest firms in Massachusetts for more than a decade and are proud to bring you this year’s edition.
The directory is being mailed to all subscribers of Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly; we estimate that roughly 30,000 lawyers will have it available to them as a reference. It’s also being sent out to more than 3,000 readers of New England In-House. That means we anticipate that this guide will be on the desks of thousands of corporate decision-makers, available to them whenever they consider what law firm they wish to retain.
Many law firms in this directory take advantage of an opportunity we offer to publish an “enhanced listing,” which includes a wealth of additional information about the firm. That’s the reason why some listings appear more elaborate than others. Firms of all sizes take advantage of this option to get their name in front of countless in-house attorneys.
Information for this directory was compiled by Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly. Law firms were asked to provide information as of Jan. 1, 2015, in order to get the most accurate details for the 2015 edition. Please note that unlike with some past editions, diversity numbers are for Massachusetts attorneys only.
We put a lot of work into this directory, but we are always open to suggestions as to how to proceed in the future. You can contact me directly with feedback ([email protected]). For advertising information, please get in touch with our advertising director, Scott Ziegler ([email protected]). If you are interested in our New England In-House publication, please feel free to get in touch with our vice president of editorial, Henriette Campagne ([email protected]).
For additional copies of this directory, please call (617) 451-7300 or visit http://books.lawyersweekly.com.
Thank you. We hope you enjoy and make use of this directory.
Sincerely,
Susan A. Bocamazo, Esq. Publisher/Editor-in-Chief Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly
