SAN FRANCISCO — The Recorder is pleased to announced the recipients of the 2017 Litigation Departments of the Year. The awards recognize law firms whose California litigators have delivered outstanding service—and wins—for their clients in the year’s most demanding litigation matters.

Recorder editors reviewed more than 90 entries looking for the most impressive victories in motions practice, at trial and on appeal. Entries were judged by the money at stake, the quality of the competition faced, and the importance of the cases to clients and their respective industries.
