King & Spalding is celebrating its 125th year providing the highest quality legal services to its clients. Since its establishment in 1885, the firm has had a tradition of attracting and developing many of this country's finest lawyers. Among them is the late Griffin B. Bell, former Attorney General of the United States, and numerous other lawyers who have held high-level positions in the federal and state governments. King & Spalding has (including nine retired partners) 19 members of the American College of Trial Lawyers, widely considered to be the premier litigation, trial practice and ethics association in the United States. Two lawyers, Griffin Bell and retired partner Frank Jones, have served as president of this prestigious association. In addition, our partnership also includes a past president of the American Health Lawyers Association and three past presidents of the National Association of Bond Lawyers.
Today, with more than 800 lawyers and offices in Abu Dhabi, Atlanta, Austin, Charlotte, Dubai, Frankfurt, Houston, London, New York, Paris, Riyadh (affiliated office), San Francisco, Silicon Valley and Washington, D.C., the firm continues to provide the highest caliber legal counsel to clients from the United States and abroad. King & Spalding represents half of the Fortune 100 and, according to a Corporate Counsel survey in August 2009, ranks fifth in its total number of representations of those companies. The firm also represents hundreds of clients with new ventures and mid-sized companies in emerging industries.
Long-standing client relationships are one of the surest barometers of a law firm's success in meeting its clients’ needs for legal services. King & Spalding lawyers pride themselves on developing continuing client relationships that are productive, professional and collegial. King & Spalding continues to build on the firm’s fundamental roots and values. Our mission statement reflects our commitment to three core objectives: legal work of the highest quality, attentive and responsive client service and community stewardship.
