Seven Brown Sims Lawyers Recognized as Best Lawyers® Award Recipients
Brown Sims is pleased to announce that seven lawyers have been included in the 2027 edition of The Best Lawyers in America®. Since it was first published in 1983, Best Lawyers has become universally regarded as the definitive guide to legal excellence.
Now in its 33rd year, The Best Lawyers in America recognizes 81,620 lawyers across 151 practice areas and 203 metropolitan and geographic areas, representing the top 5% of practicing attorneys in the market. The 2027 edition represents the highest level of selectivity in the award's history, informed by 3.8 million evaluations from more than 32,000 voting lawyers.
"While this edition welcomed approximately 30% more first-time honorees, the overall number of recognized lawyers remained steady, speaking directly to the strength and selectivity of peer review," said Phillip Greer, CEO of Best Lawyers. "This shift introduces new voices and talent and underscores the rigor of our annual research process. A Best Lawyers recognition is a distinct achievement within the legal profession."
Best Lawyers has earned the respect of the profession, the media and the public as the most reliable, unbiased source of legal referrals. Its first international list was published in 2006 and has since grown to provide lists in more than 75 countries.
Lawyers on The Best Lawyers in America list are divided by geographic region and practice areas. They are reviewed by their peers based on professional expertise and undergo an authentication process to make sure they are in current practice and in good standing.
