Lipe Lyons Is proud to announce it has been ranked in the inaugural Chambers USA Spotlight Illinois Guide 2025 for its expertise in Commercial Litigation.
While the traditional Chambers USA Guide focuses on large national and international firms, the new Chambers Spotlight series highlights exceptional boutique and mid-sized firms that offer deep regional knowledge, partner-led service, and cost-effective legal solutions.
“Chicago's interesting ecosystem of litigation boutiques is captured here; the firms listed leverage significant expertise to advise a range of local, national and international clients in commercial litigation. These Spotlight law firms are experts in arguing cases before both state and federal trial and appellate courts. Our Illinois Spotlight Guide showcases the top small firms that handle significant local matters or work on top cases in the Illinois legal market, particularly within the lower-mid market. Our vision with Chambers Spotlight is to build a bridge between the listed firms and GCs who are seeking more choices when selecting legal services – directly aiding in finding the top small firms in specific regions.”
