Venable LLP is the recipient of leading legal directory publisher Chambers‘ annual Award for Excellence in the Advertising and Marketing Category. The award was presented June 10 in New York, coinciding with the release of the 2010 edition of Chambers USA.
Venable is among the leading firms in both the Advertising: Litigation and Advertising: Transactional and Regulatory categories in the Chambers guide. Venable was also ranked among the nation’s top advertising firms in the recently released Legal 500 guide.
According to the press release at Venable’s website, Jeffrey Knowles, head of Venable’s Advertising, Marketing and New Media practice was quoted as saying: “This is obviously an exciting and very challenging time for anyone in the advertising and marketing business. While the proliferation of multimedia platforms and channels marketers can use to reach customers has exploded, so has the aggressiveness of regulators and lawmakers who police industry practices and standards. The Chambers award is a testament to our stature as a go-to firm for today’s marketers.”
