We’re honored to introduce The 2025 Lawdragon 500 Leading Dealmakers in America.

This is our 5th guide honoring the eminents of M&A, the power players of private equity, the consiglieres of capital markets. They are the lawyers firms cherish for their swagger, can-do hustle and ability to move the needle with clients and firms themselves.

From New York to Dallas to Silicon Valley, they are the beating heart of business in the U.S. and far, far beyond. To be a dealmaker in 2025 is inherently international, so the past year has been full of uncertainty and a fair amount of chaos, as well as the ever present intersection of opportunity, risk and reward.

We’ll see what happens in the year to come, but one thing is certain: These are the lawyers you want at your side whether the wolves are at the door or your client is the one on the hunt. (Sorry wolves!)

Those honored here range from Tax to Energy, Asset Management to Corporate Governance and numerous other pockets of expertise. A feature of our guides is the ability to search ‘M&A,’ for example, to see the 252 lawyers recognized for their focus in that area.

This guide is 33 percent female and 22 percent inclusive. We selected the Dealmaker 500 through a robust nomination process – thank you for the tremendous interest in this guide and all the fantastic submissions. You truly help us improve the information we publish on the world’s leading dealmakers and we are grateful. As ever, those are joined by our independent journalistic research and yearlong vetting and discussions with those most keen to chat Dealmakers, who’s up and who’s down. Members of the Hall of Fame are designated with an asterisk.

And speaking of which, this guide is ever evolving, and reflects the vital and vicious market for these lawyers. The most amazing lateral deals of the past few years are reflected here, in turn reflecting a market realigning with global firms leading the pack alongside the pure, and largely peerless, elites.

For those of you who follow our guides, we wanted to express our deep gratitude. This is our final, and 26th guide for the 2024 calendar year. We’ve enjoyed bringing you more guides to more practices and markets ever before – and we look forward to seeing you in January for our 20th anniversary. (Nominations are due in December for the earliest guides!)
