Hollingsworth LLP is among the nation's leading litigation firms. All of our lawyers specialize in complex trial and appellate work. We handle any litigation challenge, but the majority of our work is for corporate clients in the areas of pharmaceutical and medical device products, products liability, toxic tort, environmental, insurance, construction, federal claims and investigations, and government contracts. Our clients are multi-national blue chip companies, large and small domestic businesses, and an array of directors and officers and other individuals. We are called upon to solve our clients' toughest litigation problems nationwide and, in consequence, we regularly have the lead in landmark cases and on cutting-edge litigation theories and defenses, often in MDLs and other mass-litigation settings. We work with the most impressive experts and consultants in the world. Because we have the tenacity and skill to win at trial and on appeal, we increase the likelihood of successful resolution at earlier stages of a case as well. Hollingsworth LLP offers efficiencies unmatched at larger general practice firms and unmatched depth and experience.
Hollingsworth LLP seeks to attract talented individuals who have the capabilities to thrive in our litigation practice. We hope and expect that each individual who joins us will grow personally and professionally during his or her career at the Firm. The Firm works hard to equip our associates with the skills to handle greater responsibility in the litigation process earlier in their careers than their peers at larger firms.
