ATLANTA (June 13) – Kilpatrick Townsend & Stockton announced today that Atlanta Partner Justin Heineman has been named by corporate counsel to the BTI Client Service All-Stars 2023. Only 293 attorneys representing 142 law firms were included in this prestigious list.

Now in its 22nd year of publication, The BTI Client Service All-Stars is the gold standard used by corporate counsel and law firms alike to identify the attorneys delivering the absolute best levels of client service—better than all others. BTI relies on more than 350 in-depth, independent, and anonymous interviews with top legal decision makers at the world’s leading organizations, each with more than $700 million in revenue.

To be named a BTI Client Service All-Star, corporate counsel must single out an attorney for client service that exceeds all others, without any prompts or suggestions.

• Justin Heineman focuses his practice on mergers and acquisitions, capital markets, and corporate governance matters. He has over 20 years of experience advising public and private companies on complex domestic and cross-border merger and acquisition transactions, public offerings and private placements of equity and debt securities, corporate governance issues, and securities regulatory matters. As a former general counsel to a public company, Justin approaches issues from the client’s perspective, and understands the critical importance of excellent service delivery in the lawyer-client relationship.
