Earlier this month, in partnership with our friends at Lake Whillans, we released our Outside Counsel rankings, a look at the Biglaw firms most trusted by corporate legal departments. Today, we look at the firms that were rated highest by in-house attorneys based on the industries in which they practice.
Drawing on input from GCs and in-house counsel from a range of business categories, we’ve compiled rankings for eight different industries: Consumer Products, Telecommunications, Energy, Defense, Media/Entertainment, Life Sciences/Healthcare, Finance, and Technology.
Thirteen firms appear on more than one of our industry lists; these three firms below show up on three or more:
- Kirkland & Ellis (Finance, Energy, Defense)
- Latham & Watkins (Energy, Finance, Consumer Products, Telecommunications)
- Gibson Dunn (Energy, Defense, Healthcare, Consumer Products, Media)
Once again — and consistent with our survey results last year — Gibson Dunn displays impressive range across five specialties. Congratulations to all the firms recognized.
