TUSTIN, Calif., Aug. 27, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- UniCourt, a Tustin based legal technology company has just announced the release of its first annual TrueLaw Litigation Index - 2019 Law Firm Ranking , which highlights the nation's top 200 litigation law firms across U.S. District Courts for all practice types and jurisdictions.
In the announcement, UniCourt noted that, "while a number of organizations and outlets disseminate top law firm reports each year, from the AmLaw 200 to the NLJ 500, the various Altman Weil surveys, and more, we at UniCourt identified a need for a new type of report: one that is empirical, based purely on litigation data, with no other factors."
To provide added background on the court data behind the TrueLaw Litigation Index, UniCourt confirmed it pulled a complete set of all U.S. District Court civil cases from PACER that were filed in 2019, as part of a larger push to ensure its clients and the public at large could get a "complete picture of federal trial court level cases across all jurisdictions in the U.S." UniCourt further noted that its 2019 Law Firm Ranking only focuses on private law firms, and specifically excludes all state and federal agencies, U.S.
As part of an initial preview into the TrueLaw Litigation Index, the following law firms were revealed in the announcement as the top ten litigation firms for 2019:
