Summary: Two high-profile partners are joining the tax and litigation departments at Honigman in Chicago.
Honigman Miller Schwartz and Cohn LLP is wasting no time jumping into the Chicago market. They are continuing to expand their capabilities to serve the Chicago area with the addition of two partners.
