The Client Choice Awards were created in 2005. They recognize partners that provide excellent client service. Only in-house senior corporate counsel are surveyed for these awards. They are asked about effective communication, value delivered, the quality of legal advice, and commercial awareness. After personal interviews with clients, the partners from Quarles & Brady were chosen out of more than 2,500 individual nominees. Only one attorney in each market is selected for any particular practice area. According to Wikipedia, Quarles & Brady is based out of Milwaukee, Wisconsin and has 10 offices worldwide.

Townsend works in the Chicago office and is a member of the Energy and Environmental Practice Group. He heads a team of attorneys that helps clients save costs, manage risks, and develop projects in various energy markets. The team also assists clients with strategic counseling, transactional, regulatory, litigation, and government relations issues. Townsend graduated with honors from the University of Iowa College of Law, and received his undergraduate degree, cum laude, from Augustana College.

Last June, several attorneys were added to the Indianapolis offices.

Wolf is located in the Phoenix office, and works in the Franchise & Distribution Practice Group. His clients are franchisors of varying sizes, and he represents them in litigation involving fraud, trademark and trade dress infringement, restrictive covenants, breach of contract, vicarious liability, and more. He also handles general commercial and employment litigation for other clients. Wolf received his bachelor’s degree, cum laude, from the University of Hartford, and attended the Washington University in St. Louis School of Law.

In March, four partners were added to the Chicago office.
