MadisonFounded more than four decades ago, Michael Best’s Madison office is a landmark in the city’s business terrain. With more than 40 legal professionals, it blends the sophistication of one of Wisconsin’s largest law firms with the congenial atmosphere of a mid-sized office, providing clients with close personal attention buttressed by extensive resources. The diverse spectrum of clients in the Madison office reflects our engagement across all levels of the community, from agribusiness and high-tech companies, healthcare entities, venture capitalists, and start-ups to governmental agencies, nonprofits, educational institutions, and high-net-worth individuals and families. We are also deeply committed to the people of Madison. Our ties to the community are considerable in scope and longevity: for the past 20 years, our lawyers have participated in pro bono legal work, served board memberships, and underwritten performances and event sponsorships.
