At Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan, the last two years have been marked by a slew of impressive litigation feats across numerous legal arenas. But if you ask them, that’s nothing but standard procedure for the largest litigation-only firm in the Am Law 100.
“We’re known as a firm that tries a lot of cases,” says name partner John Quinn. “Typically we have at least one case in trial, and often more than one case in trial somewhere in the world every single day of the week. So, we’re known as a firm that actually goes into courtrooms and tries cases to arbitrators, to juries, to judges.”
