BTI Litigation Outlook 2018

Kirkland was recognized as a leader in multiple areas of litigation in BTI Consulting’s 2018 Litigation Outlook report, which compiles feedback from more than 300 in-house counsel on more than 200 law firms.

For the seventh time, Kirkland was selected as one of the “Fearsome Foursome” (now the “Fearsome Five”) — the five firms most likely to strike fear in opposing counsel because of their tenacity, ability to assemble winning legal teams and skill at anticipating opponents’ strategy. Corporate counsel also identified Kirkland as a “powerhouse” firm for both complex commercial litigation and securities and finance litigation, and as a “standout” firm for complex employment litigation, intellectual property litigation and product liability litigation.

The BTI Litigation Outlook report examines changes, trends and opportunities in the litigation market. Corporate counsel turn to the recognized firms for their most pressing litigation needs.
