Hunton Andrews Kurth LLP is proud to announce that the firm is recognized as one of the top firms for USA-Nationwide Crisis Management in the Chambers and Partners 2022 Crisis & Risk Management guide.

As one of only a dozen law firms in the nation recognized by Chambers as a top tier firm in the practice area, researchers observed that the firm is “extremely responsive with proactive engagement,” and ranking noted the firm’s “three core crisis response groups: the energy and physical security task force, environmental and emergency release incident response team, and the cybersecurity team.  Hunton [Andrews Kurth] is a go-to firm in the context of crisis response across each of these disciplines” in part because of the firm’s concentration of former government officials and former corporate executives and lawyers, many with backgrounds in engineering and other technical disciplines, who have dealt with crises as in-house counsel.

Chambers recognized the firm given its place at the forefront of environmental and cybersecurity incident responses—from cyber-attacks, data breaches and pipeline explosions to train derailments, chemical spills, enforcement actions, lawsuits and bankruptcies.  Hunton has led the response to oil and gas industry tank explosions and major data breaches, as well as working behind the scenes in several less headline-grabbing incidents and working in the preparedness space to assist companies avoid accidents or fend off attacks by third parties. Clients also request the firm to assist them in response to government investigations and internal allegations of wrongdoing.
