Seventy-Three Attorneys Listed in The Best Lawyers in America® 2011
NEW ORLEANS, Sept. 22 /PRNewswire/ -- For the fourth consecutive year, Jones Walker sits atop the annual peer-review attorney and practice area rankings among Louisiana-based firms in The Best Lawyers in America® 2011 (Copyright 2010 by Woodward/White, Inc., of Aiken, SC).
Jones Walker has 10 top-ranked practices in the state of Louisiana, and 13 top-ranked practice areas in the Baton Rouge and New Orleans, La. and Mobile, Ala. markets, based on the number of listed attorneys.
"The 2011 Best Lawyers practice area and attorney rankings are a testament to our ability to provide clients with exceptional legal services across a wide range of practices," said Managing Partner William H. Hines. "These rankings also reflect our strength and depth across the Gulf South, as well as our growth in new markets," he added.
Best Lawyers, established in 1983, is universally regarded as the definitive guide to legal excellence. Best Lawyers ratings are based on exhaustive peer-review surveys in which thousands of attorneys cast more than two million votes on the legal abilities of other lawyers in their practice areas. Attorneys are not required or allowed to pay a fee to be listed; inclusion in Best Lawyers is considered, therefore, a singular honor. Corporate Counsel magazine has called Best Lawyers "the most respected referral list of attorneys in practice."
