*Vereins differ structurally from other Am Law 100 firms, especially in regard to profit sharing. 1 Edwards Angell Palmer & Dodge merged with Wildman Harrold Allen & Dixon to form Edwards Wildman Palmer in October 2011, so there is no year-over-year comparison. 2 Fiscal year ends
on March 31. Results are projected in order to meet The Am Law 100’s publication deadline. 3 Kilpatrick Stockton joined with Townsend and Townsend and Crew to form Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton in January 2011, so there is no year-over-year comparison. 4 Sonnenschein Nath &
Rosenthal joined with Denton Wilde Sapte in September 2010 to form the SNR Denton verein, so there is no year-over-year comparison. 5 Squire Sanders & Dempsey joined with Hammonds to form the Squire Sanders verein in January 2011, so there is no year-over-year comparison.
