Das Chicagoer Büro von Winston & Strawn repräsentiert die Anfänge der Firma, die 1853 von Frederick H. Winston gegründet wurde. Als Vertreter der Schlachthöfe von Chicago, der Union Stockyards, und mindestens dreier wichtiger Eisenbahngesellschaften wuchs die Firma exponentiell zusammen mit der blühenden „Stadt der breiten Schultern“.

Heute sind über 700 Anwälte und Fachkräfte im ältesten und größten Büro der Firma beschäftigt. Zu unseren Anwälten, die sich einen Ruf für höchste Qualität in der Rechtsberatung erworben haben, zählen Dutzende der namhaftesten Spitzenkräfte im amerikanischen Rechtswesen, darunter unser Senior Chairman und viermaliger Govenor von Illinois, James Thompson, sowie der Chairman der Firma Dan Webb, vormals US-Staatsanwalt für den Northern District of Illinois, weithin als einer der führenden Rechtsanwälte des Landes in Gerichtsfällen anerkannt.

Unsere fähigen und effizienten Anwälte in Chicago bearbeiten wichtige Rechtsstreite im Zivil- und Strafrechtsbereich, darunter bedeutende Fälle vor Geschworenen und Richtern an bundes- und bundesstaatlichen Gerichten landesweit und komplexe transaktionale Angelegenheiten für multinationale Firmen und Finanzdienstleister. Unsere Anwälte sind auch in den Bereichen Antikartellgesetzgebung, geistiges Eigentum, Steuern, Anleihen und Zusammenschlüsse und Akquisitionen im mittleren Marktsegment, Arbeit und Beschäftigung, Sozialleistungen und Entlohnung von Führungskräften tätig, sowie auf den Gebieten Immobilien, Energie, Umwelt, Treuhand und Vermögensverwaltung.

Das Chicagoer Büro setzt sich großzügig für die Gemeinschaft ein. Unsere Anwälte bieten kostenlose Rechtsberatung für verschiedene örtliche Organisationen und Einzelpersonen an. Jährlich unterstützen wir eine Anzahl gemeinnütziger Einrichtungen, darunter
United Way, Chicago Food Depository und Chicago Children's Museum. Über unsere Zusammenarbeit mit der Kampagne für Gerechtigkeit der Chicago Bar Foundation sammeln wir Mittel, um den schwächsten und am schlechtesten vertretenen Bevölkerungsteilen der Stadt Rechtsbeistand zu leisten.

Winston’s Chicago office is committed to making a positive impact in our community through our pro bono and corporate social responsibility activities. We are proud to support a range of local charities, including The Goodman Theatre, The Legal Prep Charter Academy, The Art Institute of Chicago, and the Chicago Help Initiative, among many others. Through our partnership with the Chicago Bar Foundation’s Campaign for Justice, we raise funds to provide crucial legal support to the city’s most vulnerable and underrepresented populations. Additionally, we participate in events such as Race Judicata and Cycle for Survival, further demonstrating our dedication to philanthropy and community engagement. At Winston, we believe in leveraging our resources to make a difference and create a brighter future for Chicago and its residents.

Summer Associate Program

The Chicago office provides Summer Associates with formal hands-on training through attorney-led workshops that cover legal writing, corporate negotiations, and arguing a motion. In addition, Summer Associates gain in-depth insights into the firm’s Transactions and Litigation Practices through department-sponsored career nights. The Chicago office also hosts several summer program social events, which have included a Cubs game at Wrigley Field, a Lake Michigan boat cruise, and a cooking competition. It’s the perfect balance of learning, networking, and unforgettable experiences!

I felt great about joining Winston because the firm was genuinely interested in investing in my growth as a lawyer. They were more interested in what I could provide moving forward—not just what I have done in the past.

Sean Suber, Chicago Partner
