Overview
Business is local and global at once. No multinational entity is too large to be affected by state laws and municipal ordinances. Likewise, no individual, high-net-worth family or closely held company—no matter how focused its financial and business interests—is immune from international competition and geopolitical events.
With hundreds of lawyers located in business and financial centers across the United States, McDermott provides clients with legal advisors who are as familiar with local and national laws and regulations as they are with domestic and global economic conditions and market forces. Our US lawyers are a core component of our integrated, international law firm and have recognized strength in tax, private equity, mergers and acquisitions, health care, high-stakes litigation, antitrust, intellectual property, international trade, labor and employment, wealth management, and many other key areas of transactional and regulatory law.
We provide industry-focused counsel to multinational companies, rising entrepreneurial firms, investors and capital providers, as well as many of the world’s wealthiest families and individuals. We emphasize and foster long-term relationships with business leaders and have developed an extensive network of professional colleagues and experienced outside advisors from many sectors. Taken together, these strengths help us deliver stellar legal and business results for our clients, time and time again.
Our US-based practice teams and individual lawyers have been recognized for the quality, consistency and creativity of our legal counsel by respected industry publications and ratings agencies such as Acritas, The American College of Tax Counsel, Benchmark Litigation, The Best Lawyers in America, BTI Consulting Group, Chambers Global, Chambers USA, Global Arbitration Review, Global Competition Review, IFLR1000 Financial and Corporate Guide, International Tax Review, The Legal 500, The National Law Journal and many more.
