Congratulation to Chamber member and current President Eric Daniel from Thompson Hine LLP. A recent national survey of corporate counsel ranks Thompson Hine LLP among select law firms that are “prominently recommended.” The BTI Consulting Group’s Litigation Outlook 2011 report is based on telephone interviews between April and August 2010 with more than 300 general counsel from Fortune 1000 companies, as well as in-house litigation counsel and litigation practice leaders at AmLaw 200 firms. The BTI report identifies the best opportunities, prospects and law firms in litigation. Corporate counsel identify Thompson Hine among firms that are “Litigation Powerhouses,” and it is hailed as a “standout” firm in both product liability and securities litigation. In addition, Thompson Hine is one of the top firms clients turn to for intellectual property litigation services.
