PROFILE |
 |
Hughes Hubbard & Reed isn't afraid to break new ground -- in 1999 it became the first major New York law firm to name a woman, Candace Beinecke, as its chair. With about 300 lawyers and 30 practice areas, the firm has served clients such as Goldman Sachs, Hasbro, Spelling Entertainment, and the Boy Scouts of America (in a fight to overturn a court ruling that prohibits excluding gays from membership). The firm has four US offices and an office in Paris that conducts legal work throughout Europe, the Middle East, North Africa, and the former Soviet Union. It also operates a Latin American practice from its Miami office, as well as a Pacific Basin practice from its Los Angeles and New York offices.
