outside counsel rankings 2025 01 2

Last week, we released our Outside Counsel Rankings, an annual look at the Biglaw firms corporate law departments depend on most. Today, we highlight the firms rated highest by in-house counsel based on the industries in which they work. 

Drawing on survey responses from more than 500 GCs and in-house lawyers, we’ve compiled rankings for three industries: Finance/Banking, Healthcare/Life Sciences, and Technology. 

While six law firms made the list for more than one industry, just one — Latham & Watkins — appears in all three industry categories. (Latham was also the only firm to make all of the industry rankings in 2024.) All six firms are featured in the Top Tier of our overall ranking across sectors.

The following law firms are top ranked in more than one industry this year:

  • Latham* (Finance, Healthcare, Technology)
  • Cooley* (Finance, Healthcare)
  • Jones Day (Finance, Healthcare)
  • Kirkland & Ellis* (Finance, Technology)
  • Sidley Austin (Finance, Healthcare)
  • WilmerHale (Finance, Healthcare)

*Also ranked in these categories in 2024

Congratulations to all the recognized firms! 

To see who else made the cut, check out the full set of industry rankings.
