Vedder Price is a general practice law firm of more than 300 attorneys with offices in Chicago, New York, Washington, DC, London, San Francisco and Los Angeles. The firm enjoys a world-class reputation in key practice areas and serves clients of all sizes in virtually all industries with a responsive, results-oriented and cost-effective approach.

Within each of our key practice areas are a number of significant boutique practices whose reputations are national and even international in scope. Within our corporate area, for instance, the firm enjoys a world-class reputation in important areas of practice including asset-based finance; banking; executive compensation; investment services (mutual funds); and aircraft and equipment finance.

In the area of Labor and Employment, Vedder Price is recognized as one of the premier law firms in the nation, representing public and private sector management clients in all areas of labor and employment law. The firm’s practice is national in scope, combining both counseling and litigation.

Our litigation attorneys are responsible for handling client matters in trial and appellate courts, before administrative agencies, and in arbitration and comparable alternative dispute resolution contexts. Trial attorneys work closely with fellow Vedder Price attorneys in various substantive legal areas. While the general philosophy is toward minimal staffing at levels necessary to achieve effective and efficient results, the litigation practice area has the resources to staff the most complex litigation matters and has substantial experience in trying lengthy, multiparty cases involving computerized depositions, massive document management and sophisticated discovery and trial techniques.

The litigation practice group gives constant attention to providing cost-effective and efficient legal services regardless of the size of the matter and continuously updates clients with respect to estimated and actual expenses of litigation. Over the years, Vedder Price’s trial attorneys have been involved in a significant number of cases that have shaped the course of the law in various substantive areas at the local, state and national level.
