Client Testimonials


"The entire Bartlit Beck team provides an unparalleled level of commitment and excellence.  They are great lawyers, inside and outside the courtroom, on tough cases."

  Stacey J. Mobley  Senior Vice President & Chief Administrative Officer & General Counsel
  DuPont


 
"Bartlit Beck brings exceptional talent, experience and sound judgment to our matters.  They are tireless, creative and extremely collaborative with us and other supporting law firms in preparing for trial, and outstanding in the courtroom.  They know that credibility is everything in trying cases, and govern themselves accordingly and to the highest standards in dealing with us and with adversaries, judges and juries.  We confidently entrust our most important cases to them."

  William H. Trachsel   Senior Vice President and General Counsel 
  United Technologies Corporation


"Bartlit Beck's lawyers distinguish themselves by being more creative, more technology-savvy, more practical, and by being much better courtroom advocates. Bartlit Beck's approach to billing is a breath of fresh air . . . . Bartlit Beck has consistently delivered. Any General Counsel with a significant litigation matter (so long as it's not against my company) would be derelict in not strongly considering Bartlit Beck."

  Russ Strobel   Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer 
  Nicor, Inc


"In more than 25 years as in-house counsel, I have overseen major-league litigation on numerous occasions and have been privileged to work with some of the finest law firms on the face of the globe. None of them has surpassed Barlit-Beck in terms of litigation skills. To a person, the lawyers at Bartlit-Beck were smart, tough, creative and strategic thinkers. What most impressed me was that from the very first moment they take a matter, they focus like a laser beam on how best to present the case to the judge and to the jury -- and how to attain the best result for their client in a cost-effective matter. In short, their litigation planning and execution were superb and their counsel pragmatic and on target."
  David  Schwarte  Executive Vice President and General Counsel 
  Sabre Holdings

"As I watched the Bartlit Beck team at trial, I could not have imagined a more focused and professional effort. Every cross-examination was crisp and cutting. Every witness we presented told a story and defended it calmly. This was precisely how a case should be presented in trial."
