Armstrong Teasdale announces that 25 of the firm’s attorneys across seven jurisdictions are featured in the 2022 edition of Chambers USA: America's Leading Lawyers for Business. Of those, four partners – Edward J. Adkins, Daniel J. Burke Jr., Michael J. Engle and Daniella Gordon – are being recognized for the first time. Chambers USA annually ranks leading law firms and lawyers in various practice areas.
In addition to the individual attorney honors, eight Armstrong Teasdale practice areas have been recognized by Chambers: Corporate/Mergers & Acquisitions, Environment, Insurance, Intellectual Property, Labor & Employment, Litigation: General Commercial, Litigation: White-Collar Crime & Government Investigations and Real Estate. Three practice groups and six attorneys earned a Band 1 status.
Lawyers can be ranked Band 1-6, with 1 being the best, as well as in an Up and Coming category. According to Chambers, bands are decided based on a number of qualities most valued by clients including legal ability, client service and commitment. Chambers designates further categories in which lawyers can be ranked as exceptional, highly influential lawyers, such as Eminent Practitioner and Senior Statesperson.
