Kirkland is rarely out of its depth and can handle all types of complex commercial litigation.”
- Chambers USA, 2023
Renowned for our experience in complex litigation and arbitration, our clients rely on us to anticipate their needs and outperform their expectations. We believe that the best litigation results — whether achieved in court or across the bargaining table — occur when the lawyers are fully prepared to try the case through verdict. Our focus on trial-readiness drives successful and more cost-efficient results for clients, as critical issues are identified early and then used to maximum advantage in the litigation and negotiation processes.
Our team comprises over 650 attorneys throughout our offices worldwide. We represent clients in trial and appellate courts at the federal and state level, before administrative tribunals, and in arbitrations and other dispute resolution proceedings. We also represent clients in connection with proceedings involving government agencies, such as the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission, the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, the U.S. Department of Labor, the Internal Revenue Service and all fifty state Offices of Attorneys General.
We have tried cases successfully to verdict or judgment in virtually every business segment and substantive area, including accountant liability, antitrust & competition, class action, mass tort & toxic tort, construction, consumer fraud, ERISA / benefits, franchise & distribution, insurance coverage, international arbitration, product liability, and securities & shareholder litigation.
