Inclusion on the Best Law Firms list indicates a firm’s combination of quality law practice and breadth of legal services. Ranked firms, presented in tiers, are listed on a national and/or metropolitan scale.
Super Lawyers® recognizes attorneys who have distinguished themselves in their legal practice. No more than five percent of lawyers in each state are chosen for their high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement.
Best Lawyers® compiles its lists of outstanding attorneys by conducting exhaustive peer-review surveys in which thousands of leading lawyers confidentially evaluate their professional peers.
Chambers rankings are based on lawyer and client interviews, among other criteria, and aspects such as technical legal ability, professional conduct, client service, commercial awareness and astuteness, diligence, commitment and other qualities that clients consider relevant.
According to BTI, its Client Service A-Team report is the only law firm ranking based solely on direct, unprompted feedback from corporate counsel.

Porter Wright is pleased to share it received a score of 90% on the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) Foundation’s 2021 Corporate Equality Index (CEI). The index is a national benchmarking tool on corporate policies for LGBTQ+ employees. The results of this year’s CEI showcase how more than 1,000 U.S.-based companies are not only promoting LGBTQ-friendly workplace policies in the U.S., but helping advance the cause of LGBTQ+ inclusion in workplaces abroad.
It takes passion, collaboration and thoughtful action toward change to pursue diversity, equity and inclusion in the workplace. To aid in this endeavor, Porter Wright joined the Mansfield Rule effort to help increase and sustain a more diverse and inclusive workforce within its law firm and beyond in the legal profession.
