McEldrew Purtell Earns National Inc. 5000 Recognition

The 2026 Inc. 5000 ranks privately held companies across the United States based on percentage revenue growth over a three-year period.

According to McEldrew Purtell’s official Inc. company profile, the Philadelphia-based firm ranked No. 2,365 nationally with 142% three-year growth.

The recognition follows another Inc. honor earlier this year. McEldrew Purtell ranked No. 79 on the 2026 Inc. Regionals: Northeast list, which recognized the firm for 68% two-year growth.

Together, the rankings reflect a period of substantial growth as McEldrew Purtell has expanded its attorneys, litigation teams, referral relationships, and ability to handle complex catastrophic injury and wrongful death matters.

Growth Built Around Complex Litigation

McEldrew Purtell represents individuals and families in cases involving catastrophic injury, wrongful death, medical negligence, transportation crashes, toxic exposures, defective products, workplace incidents, institutional negligence, and other serious matters.

These cases can require substantial resources. Depending on the facts, litigation may involve medical specialists, engineers, investigators, economists, industry experts, and other professionals. Cases may also involve corporations, healthcare institutions, transportation companies, insurers, and other defendants with substantial resources of their own.

The firm’s growth has allowed McEldrew Purtell to continue investing in the attorneys, staff, experts, technology, and case-development resources required to investigate and litigate these matters.

Expanding Our Work With Referring Attorneys

Attorney referrals remain an important part of McEldrew Purtell’s practice.

The firm works with attorneys across the country on catastrophic injury, wrongful death, medical negligence, transportation, toxic tort, product liability, and other complex cases. Depending on the needs of the matter, McEldrew Purtell may serve as lead counsel, litigation counsel, or co-counsel.

Those relationships allow referring attorneys to bring additional litigation resources and subject-matter experience into a case while maintaining a collaborative relationship with the client and litigation team.

As the firm has grown, so has its capacity to evaluate and pursue highly technical cases that may require extensive investigation, expert testimony, significant discovery, and substantial litigation resources.

What the Inc. 5000 Ranking Represents for McEldrew Purtell

The Inc. 5000 measures business growth. For McEldrew Purtell, that growth has also expanded what the firm can bring to its cases.

It means building deeper litigation teams. It means investing in experts, investigations, case technology, and trial preparation. It means developing concentrated experience in areas involving catastrophic injuries and emerging liability issues. It also means having the capacity to work with more attorneys who need a referral or co-counsel partner for a significant case.

The No. 2,365 national ranking and 142% three-year growth provide an independent measure of how quickly the firm has expanded.

The objective behind that growth remains straightforward: build the resources necessary to pursue serious cases without losing the direct, personal approach clients and referring attorneys expect from McEldrew Purtell.

Continuing to Build for High-Stakes Cases

McEldrew Purtell will continue investing in its catastrophic injury, wrongful death, medical negligence, transportation litigation, toxic tort, product liability, institutional negligence, and other complex litigation practices.

Growth matters when it strengthens the work.

For McEldrew Purtell, being named to the 2026 Inc. 5000 reflects the expansion that has already taken place and the firm’s continued commitment to building the litigation resources required for cases where the consequences for clients and families can be permanent.
