To our readers:

Welcome to LawyersWeekly’s annual survey of the 100 largest law firms in Massachusetts.We have beensurveying the 100 largest firms for more than a decade, and are proud to once again bring you a resourcewith a wealth of data.

We estimate that somewhere in the ballpark of 35,000 lawyers will have this publication available to them asa reference. But it’s also being sent out to more than 4,000 readers of our New England In-House newspaper.So we anticipate that this guide will be on the desks of thousands of corporate decisionmakers, available tothem whenever they consider what law firm they wish to retain.

Many law firms in this directory take advantage of a deal we offer to publish an “enhanced listing,” whichincludes additional information about the firm. That’s the reason why some listings in the directory appearmore elaborate than others. Firms of all sizes take advantage of this option, getting their name in front ofcountless in-house attorneys. Many firms feel that it is more important than ever for firms to sing the praisesof the valuable work that they do.

We put a lot of work into this directory, but we are always open to suggestions as to how to proceed in thefuture. Contact me directly with feedback ([email protected]). For advertising information,please get in touch with our Advertising Director Charlene Smith ([email protected]).And if you are interested in our New England In-House publication, please feel free to get in touch witheditor Henriette Campagne ([email protected]).

At Davis Malm,teamwork is part ofeverything we do.From the challenging work we

do for our clients, to the way

we run our firm, to our

commitment to work-life balance.

It’s all about working together.

Just ask our shareholderKen Mickiewicz.When he came to Davis Malm,

he was looking for a change and

to make a difference.What did

he find? A lack of “red tape,”

a great team, and peers who

welcomed his commitment to

the firm’s success. Now that’s

a great way to practice law.
