Hi. I am conducting some research in the UK and I wonder if someone could help 
I would like to speak to some of the very biggest of the US law firms that specialise in, or do a lot of, plaintiff-side litigation in the fields of personal injury, medical malpractice, workers' compensation, discrimination (by ethnicity, gender, disability, etc.), or product liability, including in class actions. Big firms that seek damages for victims in other words. A correspondent referred me to your excellent site.
I have spent some time searching the web for the names of such firms, including in the Martindale database, but so far all I have found are small firms, or else big firms that only represent the defence, e.g. employers, health insurance firms, or large manufacturers!
Are there any firms in the NLJ100 or the AmLaw250 which specialise in representing victims in these fields, in striving to secure the payment of damages rather than trying to prevent it?
(If anyone is wondering, I am seeking to learn something of the history and approach of big US firms that have a lot of experience in representing victims in these fields, and perhaps to compare it with the history and approach of similar firms in the UK. I am looking to publish at least an article or two later in the year).
Many thanks in advance for any help on this!

PS I've sent this to both the accident board and the employment board - apologies to anyone who sees it more than once.
