Egbert would be proud
McGuire, Woods, Battle & Boothe LLP traces its history back to 1834, when the intrepid Egbert R. Watson hung out his shingle in Charlottesville, VA. From there, the firm's presence would grow through a dizzying history of mergers and internal growth. Today, Richmond-based McGuire Woods can claim 13 offices across the globe, and over 560 lawyers. The firm breaks down its business into 9 departments, which subdivide into 50 practice areas.
Hot jobs
As with law firms with a strong DC-area presence, McGuire Woods has made careful efforts to bolster and expand its intellectual property practice. In October 1999, Michael Fleming , managing partner of the firm's McLean, VA office, told the Legal Times: "IP is something we do have in our practice, but we need to increase." IP isn't the firm's only growth priority, however. In November 1999, McGuire Woods announced that it would open a Pittsburgh office, particularly to provide services to Dominion Resources, Inc., a major energy concern.
