Britt Cramer is a litigation partner and trial lawyer in the Chicago office of Kirkland & Ellis LLP. Britt has broad experience in all aspects of litigation and represents companies as both plaintiffs and defendants in a diverse range of matters. Her recent litigation experience includes contract, trade secret, False Claims Act, products liability, and complex commercial disputes.

Calling her “tenacious,” Britt has twice been recognized as a “Litigator of the Week” by The American Lawyer — the first after scoring a come-from-behind win for client TransUnion, and the second for her and her team’s recent pro bono victory alongside the Uptown People’s Law Center representing a woman who was awarded more than $19 million from a federal jury after facing repeated sexual assault by employees at the Logan Correctional Center.
Britt received a B.A. from Georgetown University and a J.D. from Harvard Law School, where she was an editor of the Harvard Law Review and graduated with honors. Before joining Kirkland, Britt clerked on the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit for the Honorable Judith W. Rogers.
