(July 27, 2015) – International law firm Reed Smith LLP has been named as among America’s Best Corporate Law Firms of 2015 by Corporate Board Member magazine. The firm was recognized for the third consecutive year and was honored recently at the 8th Annual Recognition Dinner held in New York.

Reed Smith was featured among the top 25 on the NYSE Governance Services’ and FTI Consulting’s Legal Risks survey. Each year the publication polls U.S. corporate directors and general counsel of publicly traded companies, resulting in two comprehensive rankings of law firms of national scope and reputation that the corporations would be most likely to retain for their companies’ legal matters. Reed Smith was ranked among the top 25 on the general counsels’ list.

“With an emphasis on consistent delivery of high quality solutions for our clients’ most challenging legal needs, Reed Smith has garnered a reputation for commitment to value, service and relationships,” said Sandy Thomas, Reed Smith’s Global Managing Partner. “This recognition reflects the firm’s efforts to provide highly skilled legal counsel to our clients, nationally and globally, across an array of industries.
