Butler Snow is pleased to announce Chambers USA 2024, the prestigious, independent legal industry referral guide, has ranked 60 of the firm’s attorneys as leaders in their fields. Butler Snow has also been ranked in 16 categories.
“I congratulate our attorneys on these impressive rankings,” said Christopher R. Maddux, chair of Butler Snow. “The significant increases across our practice areas and attorney recognitions underscore the impact of our firm’s commitment to client service and our client-first approach.
Chambers USA ranks the top attorneys and law firms across the United States. Rankings for individual attorneys are based on their practice area(s) and evaluation of their legal knowledge and experience, ability, effectiveness and client service. A law firm’s ranking relates to a department of the firm and the qualities of the ranked attorneys within that department. Factors and considerations are judged by interviews with those active in the market – mainly clients and other attorneys with whom they work – and by assessing recent work done.
