The original Am Law 50 is a trip down memory lane.

The Am Law 100 is out, and it got us thinking about the original Am Law 50. Back in 1985 there was, of course, Springsteen, Madonna, and waiting for Nirvana, but there was also a very different top 10 in gross revenue. How many firms in the 1985 top ten rest in the top ten in 2018?

Hint: As a hint/bonus, one of the 1985 top ten doesn’t even exist anymore. Can you guess which one?
