With 1100 lawyers in 13 offices spanning the United States and abroad, Bingham McCutchen focuses on serving clients in high-stakes litigation, complex financing and financial regulatory issues, government affairs, and a wide variety of sophisticated corporate and technology matters.
Bingham has one of the pre-eminent litigation groups in the U.S. With 450 litigators globally, we have developed an enviable track record in resolving business disputes, including “bet-the-company” and precedent-setting cases. We have the depth of personnel, resources and knowledge to staff the most demanding and complex nationwide cases. Our success is built on an ability to cut through complex legal and business issues and an understanding of our clients’ business needs. Whether the case is tried to conclusion or resolved by other means, we have a reputation as a fierce opponent.
We have deep internal resources that allow us to staff cases with globally recognized trial lawyers whose strengths span an array of commercial practice areas, especially in California. Within our litigation practice, a dozen of our litigators are Fellows of the American College of Trial Lawyers, and more than 40 have been featured in the Best Lawyers in America. We are highly ranked by Chambers USA in Litigation, with Marshall Grossman, John Magee, Raj Madan, Sanford Stark, Will Nelson and Jon Albano achieving national recognition.
We represent thousands of businesses with the most sophisticated and difficult problems. Some of our clients consult with us regularly on almost all aspects of their business; many retain us to assist in handling specific problems because of our nationwide reputation as experienced litigators with proven results. Our experience spans a comprehensive range of disputes, covering appeals, antitrust and trade regulation, broker-dealer issues, class action litigation, environmental law, entertainment law, financial services, insolvency and bankruptcy, intellectual property, labor and employment, , media and libel law, product liability and toxic torts, construction and project finance litigation, securities litigation, tax controversy, and white collar defense.
Our attorneys litigate complex business cases in virtually any forum and employ a range of alternate dispute resolution tools. We represent our clients in federal and state courts throughout the United States; in domestic and international arbitration proceedings; in administrative proceedings before national, state and local governmental agencies; and in thousands of ADR proceedings in the U.S. As our clients’ interests have become more global, we have been intensively involved in arbitration proceedings throughout the world, complemented by the ability to develop and execute cross-border litigation strategies.
We have developed experience in a wide range of manufacturing and service industries including automotive, banking, biotechnology, building products, chemicals, computer hardware and software, construction, electronics, energy, financial services, franchising, insurance, medical devices, oil and petroleum, pharmaceuticals, publishing, sports and media and telecommunications, to name a few. We welcome the opportunity to help solve your most difficult legal problems.
We are extremely proud of our collegial culture, and in 20110 (for the seventh straight year), FORTUNE magazine named Bingham as one of only four law firms to the "100 Best Companies to Work For." In addition, our Los Angeles, Orange County and San Francisco Bay Area offices have been named to their local "Best Places to Work" lists, published by their city business journals. We are significantly involved in pro bono and community services activities, and are proud of our commitment to diversity.
