Robins, Kaplan, Miller & Ciresi L.L.P. is one of the nation's premier trial firms. With over 250 attorneys in Minneapolis, New York, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Boston and Naples, FL, we represent some of the world's largest companies, most innovative start-ups, and individuals from virtually every industry and walk of life, both in and out of the courtroom. Our diverse and divergent backgrounds and experience with both plaintiff and defense strategies allow our attorneys to bring valuable perspective and insight to the sophisticated and challenging issues our clients face.
For over 75 years, we have helped shape the course of legal history while protecting our clients' rights. Our highly lauded trial experience and reputation for fierce advocacy makes us the firm of choice for the complex legal matters and critical disputes that most significantly affect our clients and their businesses. While we are always ready to address a situation in the courtroom, we also know how and when to best employ alternatives and are prepared to negotiate as aggressively and tactfully in settlement as we do in trial.
Our proven creativity in analyzing and proposing solutions to complex legal and business challenges is at the core of our legal strategy, and a key part of what we bring into the courtroom, and the boardroom. We strive to collaborate with clients to help them conquer their most critical legal challenges and achieve their specific business goals.
It is our firm's foundational belief that everyone should have equal access to the civil justice system, regardless of their personal or economic situation. We recognize both the professional obligation of our firm and the personal obligation of our lawyers to serve our community. For this reason, we offer creative fee arrangements and share risk with our clients when needed, aiming to provide justice for all-especially to those with great need, but without the means to afford legal counsel. We have been repeatedly recognized for our significant pro bono efforts, which makes up over 7% of our total attorney billable time, and the extensive work we do for the community through our firm's private foundations.
