Schwabe was ranked #2 in Portland Business Journal’s list of Oregon’s Most Admired Companies of 2021 in the Law & Accounting category. This is great example of Schwabe’s leadership in the industry and is a wonderful result in the list of 43 companies.

To generate the rankings for Oregon’s Most Admired Companies, the Portland Business Journal sent surveys to 3,700 CEOs or top executives in Oregon and Southwest Washington. They asked them to select three companies they most admire in eight categories, as well as three companies they admire most across all industries.

Over 300 local leaders responded to the survey. To help them make their choices, the Portland Business Journal provided extensive lists of companies and organizations in each category. They were welcome, however, to name any firm not listed. .

Respondents identified their first-, second- and third-place choices in each category. Here’s how the points were tabulated:

First place = 3 points
Second place = 2 points
Third place = 1 point
