This List ranks Nashville-area law firms by the number of local attorneys.
Information was obtained from firm representatives. Information on The List was supplied by individual companies
through questionnaires and could not be independently verified by the Nashville Business Journal. Riley Warnock &
Jacobson, last year ranked 20th, Cornelius & Collins, 26th, and Parker Lawrence Cantrel & Smith, 31st, did not respond
to our inquiries by deadline. Only those that responded to our inquiries were listed. In case of ties, firms are listed
alphabetically. The Nashville area is defined as: Cheatham, Davidson, Dickson, Montgomery, Robertson, Rutherford,
Sumner, Williamson and Wilson counties.
