More than 55 lawyers from many of Drinker Biddle & Reath’s 16 practice groups have been recognized as leaders in their fields by Chambers and Partners, an international publisher of guides to the world’s top lawyers.
The 2014 edition of Chambers USA recognized the firm’s investment funds: registered funds group nationally, and gave the highest possible ranking to the firm’s environmental, litigation: insurance, employee benefits & compensation and real estate practices.
