Shumaker is pleased to share that nine of the firm's attorneys and three of its practice groups have been honored in the Chambers USA 2026 rankings. This recognition reflects the firm's sustained commitment to delivering high-quality legal counsel and reinforces Shumaker's standing among leading law firms across the United States. For clients and prospective clients alike, the announcement offers an independent point of reference when evaluating trusted legal partners.
The Chambers USA rankings are widely regarded as one of the most rigorous and respected benchmarks in the legal profession. Rankings are informed by extensive client interviews that assess each attorney and practice on measures such as legal ability, responsiveness, and the quality of strategic counsel provided. Because the evaluation draws directly from the experiences of those who work with the firm, the recognition carries particular weight as an indicator of real-world service and results.
Being included in Chambers USA 2026 underscores several qualities that clients consistently identify as essential in their outside counsel. Chief among these are a deep understanding of complex legal matters, clear and timely communication, and the ability to translate legal analysis into practical business guidance. The recognition of nine individual attorneys, alongside three practice groups, reflects both individual excellence and the strength of the firm's collaborative, team-based approach to client service.
For Shumaker, the honor is meaningful not simply as an accolade, but as an affirmation of the values that guide the firm's work every day. Clients turn to Shumaker for guidance on matters that often carry significant legal, financial, and reputational implications. Independent recognition of this kind signals that the firm continues to earn the confidence of the businesses, institutions, and individuals it serves.
Shumaker congratulates the attorneys and practice groups included in this year's rankings and thanks the clients whose participation in the Chambers USA research process makes such recognition possible. The firm remains focused on providing thoughtful, responsive, and strategic counsel across the industries and jurisdictions in which its clients operate, and looks forward to continuing that work in the year ahead.
