Hughes Hubbard & Reed LLP (a.k.a. "Hughes Hubbard," or "HHR"), is a New York City-based international law firm among those that The American Lawyer calls "the top firms among the Nation's legal elite."
The firm's history dates back to the late 19th century when it counted among its partners former U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice Charles Evans Hughes.
Hughes Hubbard's work has been recognized by several leading publications, including Chambers & Partners, the Legal 500, Global Arbitration Review, Airfinance Journal and LatinFinance magazine.
Hughes Hubbard has also been one of the country's leaders in promoting diversity in law firms.
In 2016, the firm received the Gold Standard Certification from the Women in Law Empowerment Forum (WILEF) for the sixth consecutive year, one of only a dozen firms nationally to achieve a "six-peat" recertification. The firm also received a perfect score of 100 percent on the 2016 Corporate Equality Index, a national benchmarking survey and report on corporate policies and practices related to LGBT workplace equality, administered by the Human Rights Campaign Foundation.
Hughes Hubbard has a number of practice areas in both the litigation and corporate fields, and is renowned for its pro bono achievements. The firm and a number of individual lawyers received the 2015 Pro Bono Publico Awards for providing exceptional legal services to the Legal Aid Society and its clients. Hughes Hubbard also received two "Commitment to Justice" awards from Her Justice (formerly inMotion) for its extraordinary pro bono service.
