IFLR1000: The Guide to the World’s Leading Financial and Corporate Law Firms has again ranked Smith Anderson’s M&A and Finance practices in the North Carolina chapter of its 2024 edition.

Not only did the practices receive recognition, but five firm leaders were also acknowledged as Highly Regarded Practitioners, including Managing Partner Byron Kirkland, Firm Chair Gerald Roach, Life Sciences practice group co-lead Christopher Capel and Mergers and Acquisitions lead Robert Duggins. Public Companies leader Heyward Armstrong was also nationally recognized as a Notable Practitioner.

IFLR remains the only international legal market research brand focused on ranking law firms and lawyers on the basis of financial and corporate transactional work. Rankings are based on three key criteria: transactional evidence, peer feedback and client feedback.

IFLR1000 is the guide to the world's leading financial and corporate law firms and lawyers. The first rankings were published in 1990 and the guide currently ranks close to 5000 law firms and more than 21,000 lawyers across 12 practice areas and 250 jurisdictions. The IFLR1000 rankings are a reflection of a firm’s long-term track record in the market. For more information, visit www.iflr1000.com.
