Five Slack Davis Sanger Attorneys Named to Best Lawyers in America® for 2023

Slack Davis Sanger is proud to announce that five of our attorneys have been named to the 2023 list of Best Lawyers in America®! All five attorneys have been previously honored by Best Lawyers.

Best Lawyers® “is the oldest and most respected peer-review publication company in the legal profession.” Attorneys cannot self-nominate; they must be named by other attorneys who have received Best Lawyers designation. All nominees undergo a review to ensure they are in good standing with their Bar Associations. Though any attorney named to the list one year will automatically be nominated the next year, no attorney is guaranteed selection for the list; per Best Lawyers®, attorneys “must garner enough positive feedback to be highlighted in the next edition.” Attorneys cannot purchase a spot on the annual Best Lawyers list.

To be eligible, a nominated attorney must be in practice for at least 10 years. Attorneys who have been in practice for five to nine years may be eligible for Best Lawyers Ones to Watch, which recognizes “attorneys who are earlier in their careers for outstanding professional excellence in private practice.”
