Norton Rose Fulbright lauded in 2022 Legal 500 US guide
United States | Press release - Recognition | June 2022
The Legal 500 US 2022 guide has ranked Norton Rose Fulbright as a leading law firm in 33 national practice areas and recognized 25 of the firm's US lawyers as national leaders.
Seven of the recognized lawyers were named to their respective practice groups' Halls of Fame and seven were named to the elite list of "leading lawyers." Two partners were named "next generation lawyers" and eight associates were listed as "rising stars." Another 85 lawyers were recognized for their work across a broad range of key industries and practice areas.
Each US edition of The Legal 500 guide highlights law firms with a large national presence based on firm submissions highlighting recent work and practice details.
Emphasis is placed on practice groups and teams as opposed to individual lawyers to spotlight the legal market based on the guide's "assessment of the overall strength and depth of a practice group."
Listed below are the nationwide practice areas in which we were ranked:
