2027 The Best Lawyers in America®

Skellenger Bender celebrates 12 lawyers recognized in The Best Lawyers in America® and four lawyers recognized in Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch® in America 2027 editions.

For more than four decades, Best Lawyers has recognized attorneys based on its Purely Peer Review® methodology, with lawyers evaluating the professional abilities of their peers within the same geographic region and practice area. Recognition in The Best Lawyers in America is reserved for established attorneys who have earned the respect of their peers for professional excellence.

Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch® in America uses the same peer-review methodology to recognize outstanding attorneys earlier in their careers, typically those who have been in private practice for five to nine years.

For the 2027 edition, The Best Lawyers in America recognized approximately 5% of practicing attorneys in the United States, based on 3.8 million evaluations submitted during this year’s research cycle. Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch in America recognized approximately 2% of eligible early-career attorneys, based on 1.3 million evaluations.

Congratulations to all of our attorneys recognized in the 2027 editions!
