GRB Law: In the News

Five GRB attorneys are named 2018 Best Lawyers in America

Date: September 17, 2017

GRB Law is proud to announce that five attorneys have been named to the 2018 Best Lawyers in America list. Since its inception 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 39,000 leading attorneys cast almost 3.1 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."
