If I wish to apply to tier -1 firms, what's the best route - (i) directly mail the partner with HR in CC; or (ii) direct mail the HR; or (iii) though an associate/internal referral you know if the form; or (iv) through a recruiter.
I would directly call the partner in interested in working with. They have their numbers of the firm website
that's the best way to get blacklisted; OP asked for best ways to apply.
