FGS Global

FGS Global stands alone in the top tier of nationwide PR & communications firms in the US in this year’s rankings from Chambers.

The firm, which resulted from the recent merger of Finsbury Glover Hering and Sard Verbinnen, was the only one to place in Band 1 of the rankings, which evaluate firms based on technical legal ability, professional conduct, client service, commercial astuteness, diligence and commitment. Sard Verbinnen also ranked in Band 1 last year, while Finsbury Glover Hering was in Band 2.

FGS Global was singled out by clients as “titans of the industry,” offering “a real partnership” that is “emotionally attuned to the client's perspective and needs as well as the lawyer's needs."

Brunswick Group and Trident BMG, which placed in Band 1 last year, were in Band 2 this year, along with The Levinson Group, which moved up from Band 3 in 2021. This year’s Band 3 included Reevemark, Risa Heller Communications and Edelman, with Band 4 made up of Abernathy MacGregor, FTI Consulting, Infinite Global, Kekst CNC and Poston Communications.

FGS Global’s Jeff McAndrews and Paul Holmes placed in Band 1 of Chambers’ individual rankings. Band 1 also included Ellen Davis of August Strategic Communications, Molly Levinson of The Levinson Group, Risa Heller of Risa Heller Communications and Ellen Moskowitz of Brunswick Group. Moskowitz was also in Band 1 last year.

Chambers ranks firms and individuals from Band 1 to 6 and stresses that being ranked in any of the bands is a “significant achievement.”
