Stinson's attorneys have handled all aspects of litigation in courtrooms across the country in a broad range of matters, from the mundane to the complex. As results-oriented advocates, we understand that our clients need to have disputes resolved quickly, economically and successfully. Our courtroom success has allowed us to serve as national coordinating counsel for many of our clients, including those in such industries as pharmaceutical, retail, manufacturing and finance. Our attorneys are often recognized for their work in "bet the company" matters, where the outcome could significantly impact a client's operations. Stinson's litigators are consistently ranked in Chambers USA, Benchmark Litigation, and other national and regional attorney surveys. Stinson also was named a Go-To Law Firm® by American Lawyer Media as part of its In-House Law Departments at the Top 500 Companies research. Peer law firms have expressed their confidence in us as evidenced by the significant number of referrals for litigation in our geographic footprint. Successfully resolving disputes does not have to happen in the courtroom. Our ability to litigate is balanced by a strong alternative dispute resolution (ADR) practice, including mediation and arbitration, and we utilize those processes when the situation demands it.
