A bit about us:
---------
is one of those firms that tends to fly slightly under the radar compared to
some of the traditional New York-centric AmLaw giants, but among attorneys who practice
in highly regulated industries, government-facing sectors, and complex litigation, it carries a
tremendous amount of respect.
Founded in Washington, D.C. and now an Am Law 100 firm, this frim has grown into an
international platform with offices throughout the United States, Europe, and the Middle
East/North Africa region. The firm's reputation was built on helping clients navigate the
intersection of law, business, and government. As a result, many of its strongest practice
areas revolve around government contracts, healthcare, regulatory enforcement,
investigations, cybersecurity, international trade, litigation, intellectual property, and
sophisticated financial transactions.
One of the unique aspects of this firm is that many of its attorneys and leaders come from
government agencies, regulatory bodies, military leadership positions, and high-level policy
roles. The firm is particularly well known for its Government Contracts practice, which is
widely regarded as one of the strongest in the country and serves as a major differentiator
from peer firms.
Unlike firms that focus heavily on traditional corporate M&A or commodity litigation work,
they often handles matters involving highly regulated industries, federal agencies,
national security considerations, healthcare systems, government contractors, and
financial institutions facing complex regulatory frameworks.
The firm also consistently receives recognition for its pro bono commitment, attorney
development programs, diversity initiatives, and collaborative culture. From a recruiting
standpoint, many attorneys are attracted to them because it offers sophisticated work
comparable to larger international firms while maintaining a reputation for being somewhat
more collegial and flexible than many traditional BigLaw environments.
