Covington Named to The American Lawyer’s A-List

August 9, 2024

WASHINGTON—The American Lawyer has named Covington to its 2024 “A-List.” The ranking recognizes firms based on a combination of factors, both financial and cultural: revenue per lawyer, pro bono commitment, associate satisfaction, racial diversity and gender diversity (the percentage of equity partners who are women).

This is Covington’s ninth consecutive year on the “A-List,” and the firm has appeared on the list 19 times since it was first introduced in 2003.

Covington's chair Doug Gibson said, "the firm has successfully built a range of capabilities that few other firms can match. Clients are increasingly looking for what Covington can offer — broad and deep substantive and regulatory expertise combined with high-end litigation, corporate, and investigations and white-collar practices across multiple continents." He also credited the firm’s success to hiring and retaining a diverse set of attorneys, "Diversity and inclusion are important not only because they make us more competitive in today's marketplace — these values fundamentally reflect who we want to be as an institution."
