Tacy is the smartest and most pragmatic appellate lawyer in Chicago. She has a keen way of simplifying complex issues and distilling arguments to their most critical elements.
She is simply the best lawyer I have ever worked with.
No one understands the Supreme Court better than Tacy Flint.
She is a gifted litigator who has keen appellate insights.
She out-strategized her opponent and exploited the case unbelievably in oral argument. That requires a lot of different skills – preparation, creativity, lazer-like analytical skills – plus she's an amazing advocate who knows exactly what to say.
Tacy is incredibly insightful about how judges will respond to arguments, digs deeper than any other lawyers I have met and has a great sense of what works and what doesn't work.
