Law360 Firms of the Year

Kirkland was selected as one of only three Law360 “Firms of the Year” based on the Firm’s “Practice Group of the Year” wins and skillful management of the year’s highest stakes, highest profile work. The honor is the first of its kind for Kirkland and distinguishes the Firm from the 80 firms that Law360 honored with Practice Group of the Year awards.

Eight Kirkland practice areas were chosen as Law360 “Practice Groups of the Year”:

The series distinguishes practice groups for outstanding work on the biggest deals and high-stakes litigation of 2015.
