Cooley Cooley’s push to be the top firm at the intersection of law and technology is paying off. In the past two years, the firm has beaten back privacy class actions against clients Facebook and Sony Computer Entertainment and saved Google’s $113 billion trademark on the company name. But technology isn’t all the firm knows. Among its other matters in 2016 and 2017, the firm handled big antitrust, intellectual property and recovery cases, and also secured the dismissal of 77 suits filed by Verizon and Sprint over fees they paid to Cooley client CenturyLink.

Covington & Burling The Washington, D.C.-based firm is steeped in regulatory experience and brought that to bear frequently in the past two years. Covington is often called in when things are bleakest for its clients, as it did when it negotiated a $25 million criminal fine with the DOJ on behalf of client Takata Airbags in the massive criminal and civil litigation over the manufacturer’s faulty design. Former U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder helped steer Uber in the right direction after the ride service was accused of a discriminatory culture. Covington also helped defeat a $500 million award for client McKesson in a trade secrets case, among other recent victories.
