The Legal 500 U.S. 2023 Guide Names Wiggin and Dana a Top U.S. Law Firm in Appellate, M&A, and Outsourcing
Wiggin and Dana has been named a top U.S. law firm by The Legal 500 U.S. 2023 Guide in the Appellate: Courts of Appeals and Supreme Courts (States and Federal), M&A and Outsourcing groups.
This is the sixth year in a row the firm’s Appellate and Outsourcing practices were ranked. It is the fifth year in a row that the firm’s M&A practice has been recognized within the Middle-Market category.
The Legal 500 praised the firm’s Appellate group stating:
- ‘The team has always been very dedicated to our case. There have never been issues with deadlines or availability. Especially, the team sent us drafts quite some time before the court deadline on our request.’
- ‘The quality of the legal work has been outstanding while the team has been very sensitive to political and public relations questions. They managed to fulfill both needs without reducing the overall quality of the work. The team is also well connected.’
- ‘Great identification with the subject matter. Good strategic advice. Lawyers maintain excellent communication and engagement with the client.’
The Legal 500 praised the firm’s M&A group stating:
- ‘We have worked with W&D in a number of cross-border transactions all of which has been very successful. Our team appreciate the high attention given to us from partners and skilled associates in all practice groups. Their team has shown a high level of understanding for the challenges that a foreign investor may face when investing in the US market.’
The Legal 500 praised the firm’s Outsourcing group stating:
- ‘Of all opposing counsel in the outsourcing market, the Wiggin team is by far the most solution-oriented. Both we and our clients appreciate the ability to quickly get down to business with the commercial drivers underpinning the issues we are negotiating rather than debating theory and posturing.’
- ‘The Wiggin team is small yet effective, efficient and an exceptional group of well trained service-provider focused lawyers. Wiggin’s team of subject matter experts enable it to fully support clients on complex domestic and international issues.’
- ‘Easy to work with. Smart. Knowledgeable. Savvy.’
