Riley Safer Holmes & Cancila LLP

A national law firm of litigators, trial lawyers, and transactional attorneys, the firm is dedicated to providing results and value to its clients. Its lawyers have been retained to resolve a wide range of challenging, complex, and high-stakes legal issues, from whistle-blower allegations to government investigations, from pre-litigation demands to full-blown multi-district litigation, and from discrete internal disputes to substantial and public corporate crises. The firm's transactional attorneys have closed significant transactions across the nation, from syndicated construction financings, to airport concessions joint ventures, private equity acquisitions, and asset dispositions. Its trial lawyers have tried hundreds of civil and criminal cases to verdicts in state and federal courts across more than two dozen states, while its class actions team has defended against complex claims in more than 30 states and its appellate lawyers have appeared in most federal Courts of Appeal and the United States Supreme Court. With deep and broad experience dealing with government at many levels, several of the firm's lawyers have served as Assistant United States Attorneys, state court prosecutors, and in other roles, such as an Illinois state judge, First Deputy Chief of Staff and Public Safety for the City of Chicago, General Counsel to the Governor of Illinois, and Deputy Corporation Counsel in charge of all City of Chicago litigation. The attorneys at the firm are counselors to their clients as well, having handled the panoply of matters that confront 21st century business, including governance, regulatory, risk, expansion, competition, employment, compliance, intellectual property, transaction, and securities issues, and are skilled at dealing with the press. As such, they are adept at helping their clients manage competing constituencies such as customers, employees, investors, and regulators, allowing them to reach the other side of a crisis, and, ultimately, avoiding the necessity of filing a lawsuit.
