The National Law Journal in this special report recognizes leading in-house legal departments in the Chicago area. We’ve highlighted attorney teams, big and small, that are setting the standards in outside counsel management, corporate compliance, diversity in the profession, pro bono service and the handling of really big deals. We’ve spotlighted one company especially talented in managing all those tasks — Exelon Corp. Other legal departments in the Chicago region that we’ve selected — representing the insurance, manufacturing, aviation and health care sectors — demonstrate forward-thinking strategies for meeting the evolving legal demands of their businesses.
