“Best Law Firms,” now in its 17th year, is compiled by surveying thousands of law firm clients and lawyers. Firms are then ranked for their expertise, responsiveness, understanding of a business and its needs, cost-effectiveness, civility, integrity and whether a client or lawyer would refer business to the firm. Its mission is to help guide referring lawyers and clients seeking corporate legal advice.
Earlier this year, 161 Thompson Hine lawyers were recognized in The Best Lawyers in America® 2027, seven partners were named “Lawyers of the Year” and 41 lawyers were listed as “Ones to Watch.”
First published in 1983, Best Lawyers is based on a confidential peer-review survey of the nation’s top attorneys.
