Law360 Again Names Troutman Pepper Locke a Georgia Regional Powerhouse

ATLANTA – Troutman Pepper Locke has been named a 2025 Georgia Regional Powerhouse for its high-impact and high-profile work across the Peach State.

Troutman Pepper Locke’s Georgia-based attorneys had a standout year, from advising on a blockbuster $11.5 billion acquisition for Quikrete, to winning the first defense verdicts in hip implant and metal-on-metal hip implant trials in a decade, to ensuring the continued operation of the largest public park in Atlanta, all while preparing for one of the biggest legal industry mergers of the year.

“This recognition is a testament to the remarkable strides Troutman Pepper Locke has made following our merger,” said Charlie Peeler, managing partner of the Atlanta office. “This accolade underscores our rich history of service in Georgia, which has been pivotal in driving our success. Our commitment to excellence and innovation continues to empower us to serve our clients with unparalleled dedication.”

“We take great pride in our long-standing presence in Georgia, a legacy that has enabled us to build a diverse and skilled team across various practice areas and industries,” said David Dove. “Our commitment to excellence is reflected in the caliber of attorneys who choose to join our firm, which contributes to ensuring that our clients receive exceptional service both in Georgia and nationwide.”

The firm’s Atlanta office, boasting more than 200 attorneys, has been known to attract high-ranking members from government and public service, including, in recent years, former Georgia Chief Justice Harold Melton; former U.S. Attorney for the Middle District of Georgia, Peeler; former chief counsel to Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, Dove; and, this year, Peeler’s successor, Peter Leary.

The firm’s Georgia-based attorneys provide national and international counsel to Fortune 500, middle-market, and emerging companies in all major areas of legal practice. Industries served span energy, media and entertainment, financial institutions, real estate, transportation, communications, and technology, as well as global manufacturing, retail, trade, and government, among others.
