Honigman Honored as “Law Firm of the Year” at The Changing Lawyer Awards 2021

Press Release

Detroit—Litera named Honigman “Law Firm of the Year” at The Changing Lawyer Summit for its innovative Honigman FOCUS program.

The global summit took place virtually on Wednesday, Nov. 10. Honigman was one of three finalists named for the award alongside two AmLaw 50 firms.

As part of Honigman’s commitment to excellence and innovation, the firm re-imagined the way it serves clients with Honigman FOCUS. Through its flexible staffing solutions, Honigman FOCUS implemented unique attorney staffing models that allow Honigman to stay nimble in a market of ever-evolving client needs and attorney employment considerations. 

Honigman FOCUS has expanded its flexible staffing solutions this past year by implementing Honigman Review Solutions, an in-house due diligence center with a team of dedicated review attorneys who specialize in corporate due diligence.  Flexible Staffing also grew its in-house team of staff attorneys, which includes cross-practice interdepartmental attorneys at the foundation. These two teams form the cornerstone of Honigman's newly formed Professional Attorney Department, which provides its clients with seamless consistency. 

Honigman is achieving marked efficiency gains and delivering value to clients through an innovative, tailored approach by leveraging flexible staffing models and other Honigman FOCUS offerings such as cutting-edge practice technologies, creative pricing, legal project management, and value-add services. 

“We are proud to be recognized as ‘Law Firm of the Year’ for Honigman’s tireless pursuit of innovation. We designed Honigman FOCUS as part of our commitment to stay ahead of client needs through continuous improvement and adapting our delivery model to provide an exceptional client experience,” said David Foltyn, Honigman Chair and CEO.

The Changing Lawyer Awards “Law Firm of the Year” recognizes a firm for successfully innovating and re-imagining the way it delivers service to clients. The nominees were evaluated based on their ability to demonstrate an increase in:

• new client acquisition or growth of existing accounts;
• client retention or satisfaction;
• efficiencies for the firm’s lawyers; and
• matter management improvements.
