A summary of the client testimonials includes:

“Sharpest legal minds in the business. Early instinct for the jugular. Always comfortable in the courtroom.”

“With their consistent win record at trial they pose the maximum trial threat, which enables then to resolve matters more favorably than nearly any other shop in the country.”

“Each of the team members is extraordinarily talented, and they are better than the “sum of the parts” because they listen carefully to the client, are dedicated to aligning to the client’s goals.”

“[B]ecause it is a smaller firm you have the benefit of working more closely with their team and you have a sense that they understand you as a client. Because of the nature of the firm and the strength of its attorneys it can be nimble yet challenge the biggest law firms in the industry.”

“Personal attention, thoughtful strategy, complete commitment to your case and an effort to learn how the client functions.”

“Hueston Hennigan hires the best young lawyers while the senior partners have the experience to guide the firm to a lasting and successful practice. Realizing the client is always first while at the same time aggressively advocating on their behalf sets the firm above most others.”
