Celebrate your hard work and commitment to “running your firm
like a business,” and apply for the 3rd Annual Law Firm 500 Award.
STEPHEN FAIRLEY
Founder & CEO – The Rainmaker Institute
Has your law firm undergone a period of rapid growth? Are you leaps and bounds ahead of where you were 12, 24, or 36 months ago?
The Law Firm 500 Award is an honor bestowed upon the fastest growing law firms in America. Law Firms who were recognized in 2016 and 2017 received recognition for their accomplishments AND were included in a list of law firms published by industry media outlets, and mentioned by thought leaders.
The Award and Gala sparks referral relationships, sharing of ideas and friendships law firm owners will have for years to come. So, it’s time to ask yourself; Why isn’t my law firm on the list?
If your business is awarded, your firm will be invited to receive your award at the Gala Banquet during the Annual Law Firm 500 Conference held October 18-20, 2018 in Lake Las Vegas, Nevada. This year's keynote is Erin Brockovich who is behind the largest direct-action lawsuit in the US - $333 Million.
Apply for the Law Firm 500 Award and be recognized among the most successful law firms in the country for high velocity growth, client service and dedication to excellence.
To Qualify For The 2018 Law Firm 500 Award Your Law Firm Must:
Have generated at least $50,000 in revenue in 2014
Have generated at least $500,000 in revenue in 2017
Be a for-profit law firm, based in the U.S., and independent (not a legal department or division of another firm)
How To Apply For The Law Firm 500 Award:
It’s a two-step secure application process. Ranking is 100% objective.
STEP ONE: Fill-out the application or nomination form on the right
NOTE: If you are applying for your own firm and nominating a colleague’s firm please submit your own application first.

How Will Firms Be Ranked?
Ranking is 100% objective. There are no favors, no politics, no way to “buy” your way up the list. You’ve got to EARN it by helping more clients and running a better business! Here is the exact formula that will be used:
Example: (($500,000 – $50,000)/$50,0000) x 100 = 900%

How to Nominate a Colleague
Click on the “I’d like to nominate a colleague” radio button on the right. There will be fields for you to enter your name and email as well as your colleague’s information. Once filled out, click on the gold “Nominate a Colleague” button below the fields and you’re done! Your colleague will receive an email letting them know you nominated them and instructions on how to complete the Award Application.
Why Should You Nominate a Colleague?
Nominating a law firm is a great way to re-connect with a referral source, give a public high five to a colleague or just plain congratulate someone on working their tail off. Also, there are lawyers all over the country, who are reluctant to give themselves a pat on the back, or celebrate they their accomplishments.
