It depends on what specialty.[/quote]

Is this in order?[/quote]
There is no order. Ask 10 people and you'll get that many answers. And remember, Howrey was on this list 3 years ago.  [/quote]

Let me guess, you listed the top on vault.com
The real attys here know that you need to know the specialty to get the real answer for top-3.[/quote]

I wouldn't put Arnold and Porter in my list of top five DC firms.  [/quote]

Or Wilmer and noooo definitely not Howrey.  The person who came up with this list has been spending too much time with their nose in a Washingtonian magazine and not enough time in the real world.  And it's true, it depends on specialty...so if you're talking corporate law, none of these firms are "top."[/quote]

Why not Arnold & Porter?  If the question is corporate law, you'd want to look into New York.  And I hope no one would put Howrey on the list today, except if you are living in a time warp.

What would your top five DC firms be?  And why?  Obviously, firms vary in terms of specialties, but if you had to pick five DC BigLaw firms generally, what would you choose?

I thought vault.com was something that gave law students something to do.  I didn't realize people actually in the field paid much attention to it.[/quote]
