Parr Brown Gee & Loveless (www.parrbrown.com) has 28 lawyers selected by their peers for inclusion in The Best Lawyers in America 2013. The Parr Brown attorneys who have been honored represent 44 practice areas at the commercial law firm.
Since it was first published in 1983, Best Lawyers has become universally regarded as the definitive guide to legal excellence. Because Best Lawyers is based on an exhaustive peer-review survey in which more than 36,000 leading attorneys cast almost 4.4 million votes on the legal abilities of other lawyers in their practice areas, and because lawyers are not required or allowed to pay a fee to be listed, inclusion in Best Lawyers is considered a singular honor. Corporate Counsel magazine has called Best Lawyers “the most respected referral list of attorneys in practice.”
“It is rewarding to receive recognition from our peers in the industry,” said Heidi Leithead, president and shareholder with Parr Brown Gee & Loveless. “To have nearly half our lawyers from among all our practice areas represented demonstrates the depth of experience and quality work we offer to our clients.”
