Hunton & Williams Named Among America’s Top Corporate Law Firms

Ranked by General Counsel Among Top 25

NEW YORK ― Hunton & Williams LLP has been named among the top 25 law firms in Corporate Board Member magazine’s 15th annual survey of “America’s Best Corporate Law Firms,” which asked general counsel and directors of publicly traded companies what firms they would “most likely turn to for corporate legal matters of national scope.”

“These rankings are particularly gratifying because they validate the strong strategic partnerships Hunton & Williams has forged with board members and the general counsel of our publicly traded clients,” said T. Justin Moore III, head of Hunton & Williams’ corporate practice.

NYSE Governance Services, which publishes Corporate Board Member, and FTI Consulting, Inc. ranked corporate law firms by tabulating votes from more than 500 directors and general counsel of publicly traded companies. Respondents were asked to select 10 national firms from a list, or to write in a firm they would most likely turn to for corporate legal matters of national scope. The top 25 firms are based on the number of votes received from two pools of voters – directors and general counsel. Hunton & Williams appeared on the list of firms ranked by general counsel.

The annual America’s Best Corporate Law Firms results were published in the 2nd Quarter issue of Corporate Board Member magazine, which reaches almost 20,000 directors and officers of companies listed on the NYSE Euronext and NASDAQ OMX Group stock exchanges.
