Construction Executive is the leading trade magazine about the business of construction. CE published a comprehensive ranking of The Top 50 Construction Law Firms in its June 2025 issue, accompanied by a feature article highlighting the most pressing legal concerns faced by construction companies today. To determine the ranking, CE asked over 600 US law firms with a construction practice to complete a survey. Data collected included:
1) Revenues from the firm’s construction practice;
2) number of attorneys in the firm’s construction practice;
3) percentage of firm’s total revenues derived from its construction practice;
4) number of states in which the firm is licensed to practice;
5) year in which the construction practice was established; and
6) the number of AEC clients served. The ranking was determined by an algorithm that weighted these factors in descending order of importance.
