In addition to continuing its ascent on the Am Law 200 and maintaining its position as the fastest-growing law firm according to the American Lawyer, Spencer Fane continues to climb the rankings of renowned national legal media such as the National Law Journal and Law360.
In the recently published NLJ 500 listing, which annually tracks the nation’s largest law firms by headcount, Spencer Fane jumped to #105 in 2025, a 52-spot improvement over just five years.
Similarly, Law360 has released its 2025 Law360 400, which likewise ranks the largest law firms by headcount, with Spencer Fane breaking into the Top 100 for the first time at #93. This marks a 17-spot improvement since 2024 and a 235-spot improvement since the firm’s debut on the list in 2014.
These numbers continue to reflect the sustained growth Spencer Fane achieves through a strategy that centers on culture, talent, and client service. As a result of its intentional, multifaceted approach, the firm was declared “a case study on how a law firm can add market share, climb the rankings, and grow profits, all at the same time” by the American Lawyer and an organization that’s “redefining what it means to be a law firm in the 21st century” by the Kansas City Business Journal.
