UB Greensfelder

What UB Greensfelder does

UB Greensfelder LLP is a private, full-service law firm headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri, founded in 1908 and operating across Illinois, Missouri, and Ohio markets. The firm represents entities of all sizes across a wide spectrum of industries, delivering representation and counsel through two primary practice areas: Litigation & Dispute Resolution and Business & Transactional. Per Chambers USA 2026, 26 of the firm's attorneys are ranked across 13 practice areas spanning Illinois, Missouri, Ohio, and nationwide jurisdictions.

The firm operates a traditional professional services model, generating revenue through legal service fees across litigation, transactional, and advisory engagements, typically billed on hourly, fixed-fee, or matter-based pricing arrangements. Client acquisition is driven by reputation, peer recognition, and client-feedback cycles rather than a sales-led motion; its primary marketing assets are third-party endorsements including Chambers USA, The American Lawyer's Am Law 200 (second consecutive year), and BTI Consulting Group's Super Listener A-Team 2026 ranking, supported by a steady cadence of legal alerts on regulatory developments. The firm employs 501 to 1,000 people and is structured as a limited liability partnership (UB Greensfelder LLP), independently owned and operated by its partners with no disclosed parent company.

Recent strategic activity indicates an offensive posture: appointment of a dedicated Chief Marketing & Business Development Officer in early 2026, organic buildout of an Immigration practice via counsel additions, and broadened Chambers USA jurisdictional coverage. The firm does not operate a proprietary technology platform, AI tools, or software products; its differentiation rests on practitioner expertise and long-term client relationships.
