Benesch is an Am Law 200 business law firm with more than 400 attorneys and offices in Cleveland, Chicago, Columbus, New York, San Francisco, Shanghai and Wilmington. The firm is known for providing highly sophisticated legal services to national and international clients that include public and private, middle market and emerging companies, as well as private equity funds, entrepreneurs and not-for-profit organizations.
We have had extraordinary success in welcoming many new attorneys to Benesch over the past several years, including opening a Chicago office (now more than 120 attorneys strong) and establishing offices in San Francisco and New York. The vast majority of our new attorneys are highly accomplished partners who have joined us from AmLaw 50 firms, bringing additional depth and breadth to our practices. These BigLaw attorneys joined Benesch to be part of the exciting growth, entrepreneurial spirit and ability to service clients by providing elite talent under a sustainable cost structure that eliminates unnecessary overhead. A significant proportion of our recruits and lateral hires identify as members of underrepresented groups, and we are proud to be building a law firm that looks more and more like the global marketplace of the future. Our services in areas such as class action litigation, private equity, products liability, securities litigation, data security and privacy, real estate, energy, intellectual property litigation, white collar, and labor and employment, among others, also have expanded substantially as a result of this recent growth.
