Pillsbury is a full-service law firm with market-leading strengths in the energy, financial services, real estate and technology sectors. With offices in the world's major financial and technology centers, we counsel clients on all aspects of global transactions and litigation. Our multidisciplinary teams allow us to anticipate trends and offer a 360-degree perspective on complex business and legal issues-helping clients take greater advantage of opportunities and better mitigate risk. The firm's Fortune Global 250 clients include Bristol-Meyers Squibb, Chevron, Citigroup, Intel, Qatar Petroleum and Sharp.
Pillsbury is distinguished by its highly collaborative, cost-effective approach to client work. A decade ago, we pioneered the client team model as a means of immersing ourselves in our clients' worlds. We have since expanded this service model to include issue-specific task forces and multidisciplinary teams that focus on the emerging trends that are likely to impact our clients' businesses. We make this significant and sustained investment to stay ahead of change so that our clients are well positioned for future success.
Our Washington, DC office is the hub of our internationally recognized global sourcing and technology practices. Together with our nearby Northern Virginia office, it is also home to one of the largest transactional real estate and land use practices on the East Coast; a nationally prominent corporate and securities practice that offers a comprehensive range of corporate, securities, financing, and transactional expertise; a full-service intellectual property practice encompassing patents, trademarks, and other intellectual property rights; and a litigation practice that is recognized nationally and throughout the mid-Atlantic region for its expertise in the most difficult and cutting-edge issues.
Nearly 100 Pillsbury lawyers have held leadership positions at federal regulatory agencies and, in many instances, drafted the regulations, written the legislation, or helped establish the policies of direct concern to our clients. In fact, Pillsbury was named the “Best U.S. Government Affairs Firm” by the International Legal Alliance in recognition of our broad capabilities in government contracting and public policy advocacy. In other regulated sectors—energy, environment, international trade, health care, aviation, communications—our lawyers are taking on the role of risk analysts, preemptively assessing our clients’ exposure to possible regulatory changes and helping them develop effective compliance programs.
