6. Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP
Profits per partner: $3,555,000
Although the gross revenue of Cravath is around $350 million away from touching a billion, it is by no means an undeserving candidate for the sixth spot on our list of the 10 most successful law firms in America. Cravath firmly believes in hiring the most talented individuals it can find, nurturing them and helping them grow within the firm. As per its philosophy, Cravath is not exclusively focused on global expansion. It relies more on the quality of training of its employees, rather than its size, to provide an excellent service to its clients. This is the reason that employees at each rung of the ladder are rotated within various practices as often as possible in order to mold them into experienced all-rounders.
