Highest “Band 1” rankings awarded across Crisis Communications, Litigation Support, Public Affairs and new Cybersecurity category.
FGS Global is proud to announce we have once again earned top honors in the Chambers & Partners 2025 Guide. Our team took home the highest recognition Chambers awards – or "Band 1" – across all 4 major categories and several geographies:
Crisis Communications: U.S., UK and Global
Litigation: U.S. and Global
Public Affairs: Global
Cybersecurity: Global
Altogether, FGS earned the most Band 1 Rankings of any communications firm included in this year’s guides, with 7 total Band 1 honors. We also received Band 1 awards in every category where we were recognized.
Our newest Band 1 recognition in Chambers’ inaugural Cybersecurity rankings is a strong testament to our team’s expertise in guiding clients through the increasing array of reputational and operational challenges they face on digital platforms. Meanwhile, our continued recognition in the Crisis Communications, Litigation Support and Public Affairs categories reaffirms the excellence in counsel and support we provide our clients at their toughest moments.
Individual FGS Global colleagues also received Band 1 rankings. Paul Holmes, Partner and Vice Chair, and Jeff McAndrews, Partner and Chair of the firm’s global Crisis and Issues Management practice, were recognized as individual practitioners with Band 1 placements in Crisis & Risk Management. Paul also received a Band 1 individual placement in Litigation PR & Communication, and Co-Chairman George Sard was recognized as a Senior Statesperson for his significant career achievements in that category.
We are especially proud of these awards, as they are based on extensive feedback from our clients and partners in the legal community.
