In this issue, The National Law Journal spotlights litigation departments at law firms in Chicago. We asked top litigation practices to tell us about their operations — head counts and revenues, biggest wins and even their losses. The NLJ staff then pored over the information and selected the nine firms you’ll read about in these pages. Dentons earned the top spot, but it was a close call, and we selected two finalists: Jenner & Block and Jones Day. We also recognize firms with distinguished practices in intellectual property, insurance, mass torts and class actions, and white-collar defense. We highlighted two firms for their labor and employment work.
