Love them or hate them (or, more likely, fear them) you can’t ignore Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher’s cascade of litigation triumphs. The firm may not have taken top honors again—it’s been the defending Litigation Department of the Year champion since 2010—but Gibson Dunn’s litigators are still cooking with gas.
Gibson Dunn won seemingly unwinnable defense verdicts and secured massive settlements during our contest time frame. It helped achieve a historic win in Hollingsworth v. Perry, the U.S. Supreme Court case that effectively legalized gay marriage in California. The firm also continued turning the tables on plaintiffs and their lawyers, and it cemented its reputation for helping whole industries strike down controversial government regulations. Gibson Dunn’s deep roster of appellate advocates, meanwhile, kept shaping the future of class action litigation. Class actions may never disappear. But thanks to Gibson Dunn (and with apologies to Grover Norquist), they may someday be small enough to drown in the bathtub.
