The list is designed to help identify partners in the St. Louis area’s top firms. The list was drawn from more than 1,500 local partners at the largest law firms and includes 107 of the top partners. 

In the article, Mr. Cordell described why he decided to pursue a career in law.

“I decided as a kid that I really liked debate and enjoyed competing in terms of arguments and ideas, ” Mr. Cordell said. “I wasn’t much of an athlete, but I love the competitive nature of debate the same way people like baseball or basketball. Being an attorney is just a marvelous opportunity for people who appreciate that sort of thing.”
