Vault’s Top 100 Law Firms of 2008 list contains LexBlog clients

Today I came across this post – which linked to Vault’s Top 100 Law Firms of 2008 list –  at Above The Law. The yearly rankings, based on lawyer surveys and various other methods, provide Vault’s readers with a comprehensive list of the world’s most prestigious law firms.

Not surprising, a few LexBlog clients made the list, and we want to praise them for the accomplishment:

• Wilson, Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati, who have their attorney Cathy Kirkman writing the Silicon Valley Media Law Blog, were ranked #36;
• Proskauer Rose LLP, who operate the Privacy Law Blog, were ranked #40;
• DLA Piper, the firm that employs R. David Donoghue of the Chicago IP Litigation Blog, came in at #54;
• Cooley Godward Kronish LLP, the firm behind the In The (Red) Business Bankruptcy Blog, came in at #60; and
• K & L Gates, managers of the Electronic Discovery Law Blog, received the #71 ranking.

Congratulations to the firms above as Vault and its readers across the Internet – once again – recognize the hard work these lawyers and attorneys have put in to an ever-changing profession.
