How Benchmark Builds Its Rankings
Benchmark Litigation develops its state rankings through extensive research, including interviews with litigators and clients. Unlike broader legal directories, the publication focuses exclusively on litigation and dispute resolution.
This is the first year Benchmark has ranked Cunningham Bounds in Georgia. The recognition reflects the reputation our Atlanta-based attorneys have built through their representation of plaintiffs in catastrophic injury, medical malpractice, and product liability matters across the state.
The Casework Behind the Recognition
Our firm has represented plaintiffs in Alabama, Georgia, and throughout the country for more than 65 years. We have recovered billions of dollars for our clients, including some of the largest verdicts and settlements in the country:
- $12.1 billion recovered in the Deepwater Horizon litigation, following the largest offshore oil spill in U.S. history
- $11.9 billion verdict against ExxonMobil on behalf of the State of Alabama for royalty fraud
- $1 billion recovered for homeowners harmed by defective hardboard siding and shingles
- $226 million recovered as co-lead counsel in a bondholder fraud case against HealthSouth, UBS, and Ernst & Young
