Law School Rankings by ‘Super Lawyers’

Superlawyers


Following up on my prior post, Which Law Schools Produce the Most “Super Lawyers”? : the magazine has aggregated its rankings of law schools producing the most “Super Lawyers” in each state into an overall law school ranking which measures the total number of “Super Lawyers” that are graduates of each school.  The ranking does not adjust for class size, so larger law schools have a built-in advantage over smaller law schools.


Here are the Top 50 law schools, along with the size of their J.D. enrollment:
