Hunton Andrews Kurth wins Virginia Firm of the Year at the 2021 Benchmark Litigation US Awards

Hunton Andrews Kurth is delighted to have been chosen as Virginia Firm of the Year at the prestigious 2021 Benchmark Litigation US Awards. The Benchmark Litigation awards recognize the country’s most distinguished litigators and their firms for their work over the past year. For each of the nation’s 50 states, Benchmark Litigation selects a firm of the year.

In the virtual awards ceremony held on March 31, 2021, Benchmark Litigation Managing Editor, Michael Rafalowich said of Hunton Andrews Kurth:

Hunton Andrews Kurth, the product of a merger between two prominent firms (the Southeast institution Hunton & Williams and the Texas-centric Andrews Kurth), with the combined entity bringing together each firm’s strengths in a complementary fashion and doubles down on its comprehensive coverage regionally. Clients cheer the firm’s “expertise in our area and consistent excellence in client service and communications exceeded expectations,” calling out the individual lawyers’ “thorough, responsive and concise work product,” and testifying that they are “always available”. Hunton’s concentration of litigation talent in its Richmond office is particularly notable.

Benchmark Litigation Managing Editor, Michael Rafalowich also said of the awards:

“We are delighted that we are still able to bring these virtual awards to the litigation community. We feel it’s important to take a moment to celebrate excellence and innovation during these difficult times in a virtual ceremony.
