Squire, Sanders & Dempsey L.L.P. is a multi-jurisdictional law firm with more than 850 lawyers practicing in offices throughout the Americas, Europe and Asia.

Squire Sanders operates as a single global partnership, which ensures client accountability and the seamless delivery of uniformly high quality legal services throughout the world. Our lawyers come from many countries and cultures, are licensed to practice in both common law and civil law jurisdictions, and communicate with clients in their native languages. Today, Squire Sanders remains committed to the fundamental principles ordained by its founders: to serve clients effectively and maintain the professional standards that distinguish both the firm and its people.

Squire Sanders is organized around four major practice areas: advocacy, business, capital markets and regulated industries. Within these practice areas, our work can be divided into numerous areas of specialization, including banking, bankruptcy and restructuring, biotechnology and pharmaceuticals, communications, competition law, converging technologies, corporate, energy, environmental, health care, intellectual property, international dispute resolution, labor and employment, litigation, mergers and acquisitions, privatizations, project finance, real estate, securities and taxation.

Our client base spans the world and encompasses both the public and private sectors. In the private sector, our clients include publicly and privately held companies to which we provide the full scope of legal and business counseling required to implement successful growth strategies. In the public sector, we have extensive experience counseling governments on the privatization of whole industries and on the establishment of regulatory systems under which newly formed private businesses operate in a competitive environment. We also have one of the strongest public finance practices in existence. While growing to meet the demands of a worldwide economy, a commitment to serving clients locally has remained an integral component of the firm?s makeup since its founding in the late 19th century.
