100 Porter Wright attorneys recognized in Best Lawyers® 2024 listings

The Best Lawyers in America

Porter Wright is pleased to announce that 100 attorneys from across the firm are selected by their peers for inclusion in the 2024 editions of The Best Lawyers in America® and Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch in America®.

In addition, three Porter Wright attorneys were named to Best Lawyers’ Lawyer of the Year report. This award is particularly impressive, as it is presented to a single lawyer in each practice area and geographic region each edition.

    Recognition by Best Lawyers is based entirely on peer review. Their process is designed to capture, as accurately as possible, the consensus opinion of leading lawyers about the professional abilities of their colleagues within the same geographical area and legal practice area.
