The guide's results are the culmination of a six-month research period in which researchers conducted extensive interviews with litigators and their clients. During these interviews the publication examined recent casework handled by the firms and asked sources to offer their professional opinions on litigators practicing within their state or national practice areas. The guide identifies the leading litigation firms and partners in each of the 50 states and the District of Columbia.
