Williams & Connolly LLP
Williams & Connolly LLP is not organized into formal departments or practice groups. Litigation is the focus of the firm's attorneys. Advocacy is their skill. And good advocacy can be brought to bear in any kind of case. That is the firm's conviction, and that is one of the secrets of the firm's success.
Of course, individual lawyers develop knowledge and experience in particular areas of practice, and the firm draws on that knowledge and experience as it is needed.
