Covington & Burling, at the top ofThe National Law Journal's list of Washington's largest firms for the second consecutive year, added about 15 total lawyers last year in a time when elite firms, especially ones that focus on litigation, find the most ability to expand in Washington.

Covington, at the top of the list, grew head count by 3 percent to 454 lawyers, partly because of its hiring white-collar practitioners, among others, who left the U.S. Department of Justice.
