Ballard Spahr's Midwestern footprint includes a dynamic office in Sioux Falls, a burgeoning center for financial services, health care, agribusiness, and technology. Our South Dakota-based attorneys advise corporations, financial institutions, and individuals on business law, mergers and acquisitions, private client services, litigation, and real estate matters.
We expanded into Sioux Falls through our 2018 merger with Lindquist & Vennum, one of the Midwest's premier business law firms. Our Business and Finance team represents clients in a range of industries, from agribusiness and renewable energy to financial services, health care, hospitality, and manufacturing. We advise on transactional and regulatory matters, securities and capital raising, real estate, intellectual property, bankruptcy and restructuring, and other business issues. Our robust team of private client services and estate planning attorneys partner with clients to help them capitalize on South Dakota's favorable trust and tax laws.
Our litigators have decades of experience in South Dakota, ranked by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce as the nation's most business-friendly jurisdiction. They handle single-plaintiff cases, national class actions, and government enforcement activities involving data security, insurance recovery, shareholder disputes, and insolvency matters.
Ballard Spahr’s corporate and commercial practices are nationally acclaimed, receiving consistently high rankings by Chambers USA: America's Leading Lawyers for Business and other respected publications. S&P Global Market Intelligence (formerly SNL Financial) ranks our Midwest office attorneys among the nation's leaders for bank and thrift legal advisers based on total number of transactions.
At Ballard Spahr, we believe our clients are best served by innovative solutions that spring from varied viewpoints and perspectives. The firm is ranked sixth in the nation for its percentage of female equity partners by The American Lawyer, and was named by Working Mother magazine as one of the "Best Law Firms for Women." Our Sioux Falls office also is known for its commitment to pro bono work, and has helped many worthy causes, organizations, and individuals in need.
In keeping with Sioux Falls' commitment to greater sustainability, our office in the CNA Building is LEED-certified.
