Practice/Organization Description
Since the Vorys was founded in 1909, we have grown from four attorneys with offices on the third floor of a small office building in downtown Columbus, Ohio to a nationally recognized firm of approximately 375 attorneys with 10 offices in Ohio, Washington, D.C., Texas, Pennsylvania, California, London and Berlin. We provide strategic business and legal counsel to businesses, including multiple Fortune 500 companies, throughout the U.S. and around the world.
Our firm has been consistently recognized for providing exceptional client service and value to our clients. Because we think it detracts from client service, there are no “origination bonuses” at Vorys and no single attorney gets “credit” for a matter or for a client. Instead, we prioritize and reward working as multidisciplinary teams. This practical, innovative and unique approach to practicing law ensures that our clients receive the benefit of our collective knowledge, experience and insights on each and every matter.
Honors and Awards
We are honored by the fact that the service we provide to our clients continuously receives commendation and praise. Our firm’s preeminence and the recognition that our attorneys receive at the local, state, and national level serve as a testament to the exceptional work and superior service that we provide
Vorys is a leader among law firms. Thanks to the excellence of our attorneys, Vorys has been named one of three Ohio "Regional Powerhouse" firms by Law360. According to Law360, the firm's recognized for this honor "have capitalized on Ohio's robust business environment while still looking beyond geographic limitations to build nationally recognized brands.”

Vorys attorneys have been inducted into the American College of Trial Lawyers, the College of Labor and Employment Lawyers, the American College of Mortgage Attorneys, the American College of Real Estate Lawyers, the American College of Bankruptcy, and the American College of Trust and Estate Counsel.
