The Daily Transcript celebrates Law Week with our annual week-long series honoring the business and system of law locally, nationally and throughout the world. Today's theme is full-service law firms, and we also take a look at immigration, corporate and international law, among other practices.
It's no secret that full-service law firms offer clients many benefits. These include providing a broad spectrum of legal services that cover the day-to-day business needs of corporations as well as sophisticated transactions -- such as mergers and acquisitions or real estate deals -- and litigations. In addition, full-service firms offer clients access to teams of attorneys who are among the best in their areas of expertise and have experience in a wide range of industries.
