Munger, Tolles Tops AmLaw A-List

Kudos!  The Los Angeles based firm Munger Tolles & Olson has been placed for the third year running at the top of the American Lawyer A-List.  Rankings are based, according to AmLaw, on four factors, revenue per lawyer, pro bono commitment, diversity among lawyers and associate satisfaction.  More weight is given to the first two categories, pro bono hours being the biggest deciding factor this year for many of the firms on the list.

Munger Tolles, according to the report published by AmLaw, scored a near perfect score on diversity.  “The Los Angeles–based firm, which counts 25 percent of its lawyers and 15 percent of its partners as minorities, increased its diversity score by 2 percent, to 199 … [The firm’s managing partner, Sandra Seville-Jones,] takes particular pride in the firm’s pipeline initiatives, such as the MTO Fellows Program, which targets minority college grads.”  In addition diversity initiative, Munger showed significant improvement in associate satisfaction, which will undoubtedly make the firm an attractive prospective employer for future law school grads.

Munger, Tolles & Olson has offices in Los Angeles and San Francisco.  Its principal areas of practice include bankruptcy, corporate, environmental, labor and employment, litigation, real estate and tax.
