Reed Smith is a Global Top-20 law firm that has worked in close partnership with its clients throughout a successful 125-year history to grow from being a leading national law firm to a transatlantic law firm committed to providing the highest level of service to national and international clients.

Founded in Pittsburgh in 1877, they have nearly 1000 lawyers in 16 offices in the U.S. and 2 in the U.K., and are counsel to 29 of the top 30 United States banks; 26 of the Fortune e-50 companies; 9 of the top 10 pharmaceutical companies; and 50 of the world's leading drug and device manufacturers. Reed Smith is especially well-positioned to provide strategic counsel to the Financial Services, Life Sciences, Technology and Energy industries. But the defining quality of a law firm is not its size or core capabilities, but rather a unity of purpose that defines the firm's culture: an uncommon level of personal commitment to the interests of their clients.
