31 July 2018

Debevoise & Plimpton has been named to The American Lawyer’s 2018 “A-List.” The list seeks to highlight the most well-rounded firms of the year by taking both financial and cultural criteria into consideration when choosing firms for inclusion. Debevoise has been on the “A-List” every year since it was created.
