Top Law Schools

Can anyone point me in the right direction to where I can find a comprehensive list of market-paying law firms in Chicago? I have yet to find one which lists all of them, and I don't want to miss one because of oversight. Currently have this list:

1. Kirkland & Ellis
2. Sidley Austin
3. Baker McKenzie
4. Mayer Brown
5. Winston & Strawn
6. Jenner & Block
7. McDermott Will & Emery
8. Katten Muchin Rosenman
9. Seyfarth Shaw
10. Vedder Price
11. Chapman & Cutler
12. Schiff Hardin
13. Skadden
14. Latham & Watkins
15. Jones Day
16. Proskauer Rose
17. DLA Piper
18. Dentons
19. Reed Smith
20. Greenberg Traurig
21. Locke Lorde
22. Paul Hastings
23. K&L Gates
24. Perkins Coie
25. McGuire Woods
26. Foley & Lardner

Are there any others?

If by market you mean lockstep like Cravath, only like half of those firms match that scale.

Yeah, I was using the term incorrectly; by market I meant 180k entry-level salary. However, also interested in knowing which firms do match Cravath lock-step. I'm assuming if they aren't a v50 firm, they probably do not? Though it seems some smaller vault ranked firms like Katten do match the Cravath scale....

Regardless, would like to know which firms match Cravath lockstep and/or have a 160-180k starting salary.

Way less than half. A chunk don’t start at 180 either (and forget about similar raises).
