ATLANTA (May 18, 2021) – Smith, Gambrell & Russell, LLP (SGR) is pleased to announce that the firm has been recognized by The American Lawyer as a 2021 Am Law 200 firm for the seventh consecutive year. Once again, SGR improved its standing on the list by advancing two spots from 2020, as a result of the firm’s continuing growth.

The Am Law 200, a ranking of the 200 highest-grossing law firms in the United States, is reported by ALM business of law journalists and researchers. The list is published annually with a first portion, the Am Law 100, followed by the Second Hundred comprised of the firms ranked 101-200.
