SIXTY-SEVEN MAYNARD, COOPER & GALE LAWYERS CHOSEN FOR THE 2012 EDITION OF THE BEST LAWYERS IN AMERICA
Sixty-Seven lawyers from Maynard, Cooper & Gale, P.C. have been selected as leading lawyers in the 2012 edition of The Best Lawyers in America, an independent lawyer rating publication.
Since its inception in 1983, Best Lawyers has become universally regarded as one of the definitive guides to legal excellence. Because Best Lawyers is based on an exhaustive peer-review survey in which more than 41,000 leading attorneys cast almost 3.9 million votes on the legal abilities of other lawyers in their practice areas, and because lawyers are not required or allowed to pay a fee to be listed, inclusion in Best Lawyers is considered a singular honor. Corporate Counsel magazine has called Best Lawyers “the most respected referral list of attorneys in practice.” The sixty-seven Maynard lawyers cited in the publication for special recognition in their areas of practice are as follows:
