Potts & Potts, a personal injury law firm based in Honolulu, Hawaii, has released its updated 2026 United States Attorneys Map, an interactive web-based tool that visualizes the distribution of licensed lawyers across all 50 states and the District of Columbia. The map, available at https://www.pottsalc.com/united-states-attorneys-map/, transforms bar association statistics into an accessible format, displaying total licensed attorneys, population figures, and the number of lawyers per 10,000 residents for each jurisdiction.
According to the firm, the map covers over 1.3 million licensed attorneys nationwide, offering insights into regional differences and trends within the legal profession. Users can hover over individual states to view detailed statistics, enabling comparisons of attorney counts, legal market density, and workforce characteristics across the country. The tool is intended for legal professionals, students, journalists, and anyone interested in understanding the geographic distribution of the U.S. legal workforce.
“As the legal profession continues to evolve, access to accurate and easy-to-interpret attorney data becomes increasingly valuable for legal professionals, students, journalists, and anyone interested in the legal workforce,” said a representative for Potts & Potts. “This updated interactive map offers an insightful look at the U.S. legal community, state by state.”
The map highlights notable variations in lawyer density. For instance, states with large metropolitan areas tend to have higher concentrations of attorneys, while rural states often show lower numbers per capita. Such data can inform decisions for law school graduates, firms considering expansion, and policymakers analyzing legal access.
Potts & Potts, with over 40 years of experience in personal injury law, created the map as a free resource. The firm emphasizes that the tool is designed to make complex data easy to navigate, providing a comprehensive perspective on the legal landscape. The map does not include contact information for individual attorneys but serves as a macro-level overview of the profession.
The release of the 2026 map follows previous editions, with updates reflecting current bar association data. By offering this interactive resource, Potts & Potts aims to contribute to public understanding of the legal workforce and its distribution across the United States.
