ATLANTA – Oct. 2, 2018 – The Litigation Practice group in the Georgia office of global law firm Greenberg Traurig, LLP was named a finalist for The American Lawyer Regional Litigation Department of the Year award for Georgia.
“This recognition reflects the outstanding work our attorneys continuously deliver to our clients,” said Theodore I. Blum, Managing Shareholder of the law firm’s Atlanta office. “Our selection across consecutive years is an indication of the model leadership and dedication of our litigation practices. It is an honor to be acknowledged by The American Lawyer, an organization embedded in the legal industry.”
This is the fourth consecutive year Greenberg Traurig’s Atlanta litigation departments have been recognized by American Lawyer Media (ALM) publications. ALM’s Georgia-based Daily Report honored the firm in 2013, 2015, 2016 and 2017 for its representation of pharmaceutical and medical device companies in some of the most significant products liability litigation affecting the industry handled by the firm’s Products Liability & Mass Torts and Pharmaceutical, Medical Device & Health Care practices. The firm was also honored in 2015 and 2016 in the area of Labor & Employment for the handling and trying of complex bet-the-company and large high-stake cases including class and collective actions by the Atlanta office’s Labor & Employment Practice.
