Dallas' Sayles Werbner Again Named Among 'Best Law Firms' in U.S.

DALLAS, Nov. 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Dallas' Sayles Werbner is being recognized in the 2014 "Best Law Firms" list of the nation's top legal shops based on nominations from clients and attorneys from competing law firms across the country.

Earlier this year, firm founders Richard "Dick" Sayles and Mark Werbner once again were honored in The Best Lawyers in America based on their decades of successful work in courtroom trials and legal negotiations on behalf of their clients. Now, the publishers of U.S. News & World Report and Best Lawyers are honoring the entire firm for the fifth year in a row.

Sayles Werbner is recognized as a top-tier Dallas firm for both commercial litigation and white-collar criminal defense in "Best Law Firms." The exclusive list of leading U.S. law firms appears online at http://bestlawfirms.usnews.com/.

Working with the firm's deep bench of seasoned trial lawyers, Sayles Werbner recently helped a group of international terrorism victims win $1.3 million in attorneys' fees. The fee award victory is part of the ongoing New York federal lawsuit against Arab Bank over alleged worldwide terrorism funding. Earlier this year, the firm won a hard-fought jury verdict in Fort Worth district court on behalf of a group of victims who were injured in a 2010 Colorado bus crash.

Both Sayles and Werbner have been named Trial Lawyer of the Year by the Texas chapters of the American Board of Trial Advocates (TEX-ABOTA), and both were honored earlier this year as "Leaders in Their Field" by Chambers USA.

Other firm attorneys earning professional recognition in 2014 include Joel Israel, Shawn Long, Sawyer Neely, Darren Nicholson and Rob Sayles, all of whom were selected to the 2013 Texas Rising Stars list honoring the state's top young lawyers. The exclusive list, which includes less than 2.5 percent of eligible Texas lawyers, appeared in the April issues of Texas Monthly and Texas Rising Stars magazines.

Sayles Werbner has an international reputation as a "go-to" trial law firm in multifaceted business litigation, patent litigation, life-altering personal injury cases, and other areas of the law. More information about the firm can be found at http://www.swtriallaw.com/.
