Nordstrom, Nike Select Lane Powell as a ‘Go-To Law Firm’ Once Again

Lane Powell was named by its clients Nordstrom and Nike as a “Go-To Law Firm®” in a survey conducted by Corporate Counsel magazine for its annual “Who Represents America’s Biggest Companies?” issue.

Nordstrom named Lane Powell as a 2008 Go-To Law Firm® for Corporate Transaction, Labor and Employment, and Litigation. Nike named Lane Powell as a 2008 Go-To Law Firm® for Labor and Employment. The two clients also selected Lane Powell in the 2007 survey.

General Counsels of Fortune 500 companies were asked to name their “go-to” law firms in a variety of practice areas. Fewer than .5% of all firms in the U.S. and abroad are recognized with this esteemed honor.

In addition, in survey for a reference guide distributed to in-house counsel at the nation’s leading financial services companies, Lane Powell was chosen by the following clients:

• Prudential Financial, Inc. – Securities
• St. Paul Travelers Companies, Inc. – Labor and Employment
• The Navigators Group, Inc. – Litigation

Nominees for the guide were chosen from a nationwide survey, conducted by Corporate Counsel magazine, of General Counsels from leading financial services companies, in addition to in-depth research and analysis of various public filings and resources. Due to the rigorous selection process, making the final cut is considered a significant achievement.
