David Bruce, a founding partner in the 11-lawyer litigation boutique Savitt Bruce & Willey, has been recognized for his excellence in commercial litigation in the 2015 edition of Chambers USA: America’s Leading Lawyers for Business.

He joins firm co-founder and shareholder Jim Savitt who has been similarly recognized in Chambers USA since 2013.

Chambers has been ranking the best law firms and lawyers since 1990, and publishes guides covering 185 jurisdictions throughout the world. Chambers research is conducted by 150 full-time editors and writers, all of whom are trained investigative researchers, employed at its head office in London.

“In a legal marketing world that is literally awash in gratuitous and duplicative listings, pay-for-plays, unresearched ratings, rankings and scams – over 900 at last count – there are innumerable ways for lawyers and marketing departments to waste their time and money. Amid the confusion and noise, there are only a few islands of sanity and dependability left. Among those, Chambers & Partners stands out for its comprehensive view of the marketplace, depth and quality of research, and commitment to reporting integrity,” Chambers says.
