Vorys has been recognized as a 2015 Go-To Law Firm® in American Lawyer Media’s (ALM) twelfth annual survey of in-house counsel at the top 500 companies in the United States. Less than one percent of all law firms in the U.S. are recognized with this respected honor each year and Vorys has been recognized in multiple practice areas every year since the inception of the survey.
This year, ten of the largest and most respected companies in the nation named Vorys as their firm of choice. The firm was recognized by these clients in four practice areas: contracts litigation, labor and employment law, labor litigation and torts litigation.
The Fortune 500 companies that named Vorys as their go-to firm come from numerous industries including, retail, financial institutions, health care and manufacturing.
The companies are:
- 3M
- Best Buy
- Cardinal Health
- Dick's Sporting Goods
- General Electric
- General Mills
- Goodyear Tire & Rubber
- Johnson Controls
- Morgan Stanley
- Whirlpool
The survey results will appear in ALM’s 2014 edition of “In-House Law Departments at the Top 500 Companies.” In the survey, ALM asked general counsel at the top 500 U.S. companies which outside law firms they turn to first to handle their most challenging legal needs and which firms they preferred in a variety of practice areas. The survey along with research from key databases formed the basis for the Vorys’ selection as a Go-To Law Firm®.
