It can’t be easy to work with David Boies and not be eclipsed, but Sigrid McCawley is holding her own. Actually, McCawley, a litigation partner at Boies Schiller Flexner, is doing more than that. She’s having a banner year.

Vivia ChenMcCawley made the finalist list for The American Lawyer’s 2019 litigator of the year. She didn’t win, but her competition was formidable, including Ted Boutrous (who won), Evan Chesler, Shay Dvoretzky, Roberta Kaplan, David Lender, Sharon Nelles and Rob Saunders.
