Statement From the Chair

For nearly 140 years, Simpson Thacher has been the legal counsel of choice for some of the world’s most sophisticated and innovative clients. We credit much of the Firm’s success to our core values: legal excellence, a culture of collegiality and collaboration, and a pragmatic, commercial approach in assisting our clients to achieve their goals.

Simpson Thacher is home for me, and I have had the privilege to hold a number of leadership roles within the Firm. As Chair of Simpson Thacher’s Executive Committee, I am honored to have the opportunity to partner with my colleagues in building upon the strong foundation established by current and past Firm leaders to ensure we remain one of the world’s preeminent law firms.

We are grateful to our clients who rely on us to help them tackle their most critical issues and important matters, particularly amidst these uncertain times.

Simpson Thacher continues to enhance its capabilities to best serve both existing and new clients through thoughtful practice expansion and ongoing investments in our exceptional bench of talent and our training, development and mentoring programs.

We are dedicated to advancing our efforts on diversity, equity and inclusion, and continue to expand our impactful pro bono work with clients and the broader legal community, to aid underserved communities and promote social justice.

I am incredibly proud of the Firm’s lawyers and professional staff, who continue to dedicate themselves, every day, to our clients, communities, and each other, and I am excited to continue the work ahead.
