The BrickHouse Law Group is proud to announce its designation as a Best Law Firm in America by U.S. News & World Report. Specifically, the BrickHouse is the only firm in St. Louis designated as “first-tier” in the areas of Entertainment Law—Motion Pictures & Television and Entertainment Law—Music. It is also one of only six St. Louis law firms designated a Best Law Firm in the field of Copyright Law and one of just twelve in St. Louis to receive that honor in Intellectual Property Litigation.

“We are also the smallest firm to make the cut in St. Louis,” noted Geoff Gerber, one of the firm’s three principals, pointing out that BrickHouse is ranked at the same level in I.P. Litigation as the 250-lawyer firm of Armstrong Teasdale and at the same level in Copyright Law as the international law firm of SNR Denton.

“Although the three of us started our careers in Big Law,” Geoff explained, “we believe that our clients are best served by the innovative approach to legal problems made possible in our uniquely collaborative practice.”

U.S. News & World Report explains that its Best Law Firm “rankings are based on a rigorous evaluation process that includes the collection of client and lawyer evaluations, peer review from leading attorneys in their field, and review of additional information provided by law firms as part of the formal submission process. An unprecedented amount of data was collected in the project’s second year, and this combined data resulted in the 2011-2012 ‘Best Law Firms’ rankings.”
