Cole Schotz P.C. is pleased to announce that 29 of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized by Best Lawyers® on its 2020 Best Lawyers in America list. Many of the firm’s attorneys are regularly featured on the annual list, with 20 attorneys being featured for 10 years or more years.

Best Lawyers, among the oldest peer reviewed guides to the legal profession, identifies honorees through a detailed peer-review process in which 50,000 attorneys evaluate their colleagues based on legal abilities within similar geographical locations and legal practice areas. A description of the methodology can be viewed on the Best Lawyers website.

From those selected as Best Lawyers, an additional “Lawyer of the Year” title is awarded to those individual attorneys who receive the highest peer-feedback overall in a specific practice area and geographic location.
