February 18, 2026
Sidley was named a 2025 “Compliance Group of the Year” by Law360, recognizing the firm’s global leadership in advising clients on complex regulatory compliance, enforcement, and risk matters that shaped the legal landscape over the past year. This marks the third consecutive year that Sidley earned this recognition.
In profiling the firm, Law360 noted how Sidley’s compliance team has successfully navigated matters that cut across regulatory agencies and industry sectors, reinforcing the importance of strong compliance counsel in an era of heightened enforcement and rapidly evolving standards. The recognition is a testament to the firm’s commitment to excellence and the strength of its cross-practice collaboration in serving global clients confronting the most complex compliance and regulatory risks.
Noting that clients value our deep bench of regulatory experience, Stephen Cohen, the global practice leader of the firm’s Regulatory and Enforcement group, said “When our clients have a problem, it’s very rare that we’re not able to bring very specific expertise to bear. We don’t need to send associates off doing a bunch of research in a lot of these areas; we often have a person who actually knows it, and I think that’s something unique that our clients really benefit from and enjoy.”
Sidley’s global Regulatory and Enforcement team is renowned for its unparalleled experience and success in navigating complex compliance issues. With more than 100 lawyers who have held senior positions within more than 35 key regulatory and enforcement agencies globally, Sidley’s cross-border team brings an invaluable insider’s perspective to every conceivable compliance issue.
