Attorneys in our Birmingham office provide statewide and national representation in complex business and litigation matters for clients operating locally, regionally or internationally. The Birmingham office includes attorneys who are members of all seven firm sections, including business, energy, environmental and natural resources, and who advise clients ranging from individuals and closely-held companies to multi-national corporations. Our attorneys are leading practitioners in their practice areas and occupy leadership roles in a variety of industry and trade associations. Through our collaborative, multi-disciplinary approach, we have served clients across the country in virtually ever industry vertical. Our attorneys have acted as lead counsel to the applicant for the first-ever combined licenses for two new nuclear units issued by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, and have helped complete one of the top 10 largest economic development deals to occur in the U.S. during the past decade. Their work also led to our recognition by The Bond Buyer as the top bond counsel law firm for Alabama municipalities. Two of the top three banks in Alabama turn to us for representation on complex and emerging regulations, and we have eight decades of experience providing counsel to the nation's second largest investor-owned electric utility provider. Our Birmingham office is also home to our Susan B. Livingston Boot Camp for Success, a program designed to encourage diversity in the legal profession and help provide future law students with the tools needed to succeed in law school and in their careers. Our Banking & Finance, Bankruptcy/Restructuring, Corporate, Environmental and Natural Resources, Labor and Employment, Litigation and Real Estate practices are recognized by Chambers USA, and we are proud of our attorneys who are regularly honored as leading practitioners. We frequently collaborate with our other offices located across the Southeast to deliver comprehensive representation to clients across the U.S.
