Market leaders
JSA and TL are true T1. They are truely professionally run, no papa or mummy on top holding lions share. TL started seeing its potential sooner, JSA is a bit late. All others have survived because the papas and mummys have agreed to dilute a little. Either that continues to happen and they too become professionally run one day. Or they wither out.
Just my opinion people, you dont have to agree, or lose sleep over it.
For example, CAM ECM is tier 1 obviously, but its IP practice may not rival some others. JSA B&F is obviously t1, but its GC generally isn't. CAM/ SAM GC is strong, but can it rival Mr. Iqbal at JSA. Can NKUs Comp practice rival any other firm? This affects pay in bonuses and partnership as well.
What according to you are the undisputed Tier 1 firms in the market today?
