Four Reed Smith practices – Chicago Commercial Litigation; New Jersey Mergers & Acquisitions; New York City Advertising; and Philadelphia Banking and Finance – rose in rank to Tier 1 this year.

The Best Law Firms rankings are based on law firm submissions and survey responses from clients and professional references describing the firm's knowledge, responsiveness, understanding of a business, cost-effectiveness, civility, and whether they would refer another client to the firm. In order to be eligible for inclusion in the Best Law Firms list, a firm must have at least one attorney listed in the eligible practice in the current Best Lawyers edition.

Last year, Reed Smith was honored as “Law Firm of the Year” in Insurance Law by U.S. News – Best Lawyers.
