We recognize that the Pennsylvania Bar Association brings together some of the most knowledgeable attorneys in the region, professionals whose insights are invaluable in shaping our rankings.

We invite all Pennsylvania Bar members to participate in our ongoing research—either for Chambers Spotlight Pennsylvania, which is exclusively for firms with fewer than 75 attorneys, or for the Chambers USA Guide which has been identifying and ranking the top legal talent in the USA since 2003. It is open for all firms to submit toward and consists of both law firm and lawyer rankings across all 50 states.

Chambers and Partners is the world's leading legal rankings and insights intelligence company. For over 30 years, Chambers has differentiated the very best legal talent by identifying and ranking law firm departments and lawyers globally.

Chamber USA submission period runs from August until February and the guide launches in June every year.

Chambers Spotlight Pennsylvania is our new guide to the market and research has started in February 2025.

We’ve identified a clear shift in the Pennsylvania legal market: many large corporations are now turning to local law firms that deliver quick, effective support for ever-evolving in-house counsel needs.

Chambers Spotlight Pennsylvania is crafted exclusively for firms with fewer than 75 attorneys and those that do not yet have a department ranking in the main Chambers USA guide.

Firms recognized only through individual attorney rankings in the main guide still qualify for a Spotlight ranking. By focusing on small to medium-sized Pennsylvania firms, we help in-house counsel—seeking a broader range of legal services—connect with the responsive support these firms offer.
