Zuckerman Spaeder has chalked up big wins for clients in high-profile cases during the past year. “We are very selective about the cases we bring in and the battles we fight,” partner Cy Smith said. “It grows out of a larger emphasis to staff cases leanly. We’re accustomed to focusing on the critical part of the case to either win or lose in trial or pretrial.”

Established in 1975 by former Assistant U.S. Attorney Roger Zuckerman, the firm has focused primarily on a complex-­litigation practice based in Washington. As a litigation boutique, Zuckerman Spaeder has always maintained a high partner-to-associate ratio. The theory is that keeping the firm lean with top attorneys allows more direct partner contact with clients and allows the firm to tackle big cases at lower cost than larger firms.
