Government Contracts

Miles & Stockbridge is pleased to announce that Chambers USA has ranked its lawyers and practices as industry leaders in the mid-Atlantic region and across the United States. Twenty-eight Miles & Stockbridge lawyers and 11 of the firm’s practices made the annual list—a jump up from last year’s rankings of 24 lawyers and 10 practices.

Miles & Stockbridge lawyers were recognized in the mid-Atlantic region for their deep experience in bankruptcy/restructuring, construction, corporate/mergers and acquisitions, employee benefits/executive compensation, healthcare, insurance, labor and employment, litigation, real estate, and zoning/land use. In addition, the firm earned top rankings nationally for having a highly regarded  government contracts practice and leading niche practice as  Maryland Counsel for Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs).

“Miles & Stockbridge could not be more grateful for our amazing clients and the ground breaking work we do with them every day to support their success,” said Nancy Greene, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Miles & Stockbridge. “We are inspired by their ideas and motivated by their goals and, because of them, we continue to push ourselves, raising the bar on what a true business partner and client-focused lawyer is.”

Chambers USA ranking decisions are made collaboratively by research analysts and U.S. deputy editors. Rankings are also determined through an assessment of work identified on a firm’s submission, along with external feedback on the firm’s service and an emphasis on opinions provided by clients.
