For more than 20 years, Construction Executive has been the leading trade magazine covering the business of construction. In its June 2023 issue, CE published a comprehensive ranking of The Top 50 Construction Law Firms™ featuring breakouts and analysis accompanied by an article in which leading accounting experts discuss their construction clients' most pressing business concerns.
To determine the ranking, CE asked hundreds of U.S. law firms with construction practices to complete a survey. Data collected included: 1) 2022 revenues from the firm’s construction practice; 2) number of attorneys in the firm’s construction practice; 3) percentage of firm’s total revenues derived from its construction practice; 4) number of states in which the firm is licensed to practice; 5) year in which the construction practice was established; and 6) the number of Architecture, Engineering and Construction clients served during fiscal year 2022. The ranking was determined by an algorithm that weighted these factors in descending order of importance.
