Gibson Dunn is once again one of the Fearsome Foursome — the four law firms that corporate counsel and other legal decision-makers say they most dread having to face off against in litigation, according to The BTI Consulting Group’s BTI Litigation Outlook 2026 report.

“We are part of the Fearsome Foursome because we win,” says partner Helgi Walker, Co-Chair of the firm’s global Litigation Practice Group, “and we win because we work harder, think smarter, strategize more creatively, and dig deeper than our peers. When we show up in a case for our clients, our opponents know the fight just got tougher and the stakes higher.”

The Litigation Outlook report is based on surveys and interviews with general counsel and other legal decision-makers at large organizations with $1 billion or more in revenue.
