Legal covers law firms and practitioners, organised by the area of law the site advertises: business, real estate, family, employment, estate planning, criminal defence, personal injury and IP.

Where it meets Accounting

Business lawyers and employment specialists overlap with accounting and HR practices, which is where corporate advisory work genuinely sits across both.

Legal is rarely an added label
85% carry Legal as their main industry, the 51st lowest share of 53. The 228,042 additional-label companies can admit adjacent practices.
Business-facing firms over-index
43% sell to businesses (B2B), above the index baseline of 33%, making B2B a useful split from the 54% B2C majority.
Business lawyers form the largest segment
Business Lawyer has 420,502 companies, ahead of Family Lawyer at 260,751. Sub-industry labels can overlap, so these counts are not additive.

1,294,090 carry Legal as their main industry; 228,042 carry it as an additional label.

Methodology

Aggregate counts from the DiscoLike index of 80M+ companies. Companies without a resolvable location are counted under 'unknown', and cells below the minimum count threshold are folded into an 'other' bucket. Industry and business-type categories overlap: a company carrying several labels is counted in each.

Updated monthly. Current snapshot: October 2026. See the full Company Index Stats.
