September 12, 2024 | Spotlight



Jackson Walker’s Trial & Appellate Litigation practice has once again been recognized as a formidable opponent in the courtroom by BTI Consulting Group in its annual “BTI Litigation Outlook” report.

Each year, BTI Consulting Group interviews more than 350 legal decision makers responsible for litigation at large organizations with $1 billion or more in revenue. Their feedback is used to determine the law firms who are best at delivering favorable results in complex commercial litigation, complex employment litigation, class actions, intellectual property litigation, securities and finance litigation, product liability litigation, and cybersecurity litigation.

This year, Jackson Walker has been named as an Awesome Opponent among the list of the law firms “Most Feared in Litigation” which “define new rules to play by, are relentless, cunning, aggressive, very smart, and play to win — and win big.”

“We are proud to be named among the firms ‘Most Feared in Litigation’ once again,” said Ross Forbes, firmwide leader of the litigation practice. “We have a proven track record of tackling complex, at times controversial, and often precedent-setting cases. I am proud to lead this highly successful group as we continue to win difficult cases for our clients at trial and on appeal.”
