Sherman & Howard Attorneys Rank Highly in Best Lawyers in America 2009 Edition
September 30, 2008
Forty lawyers from the Denver office of Sherman & Howard were recently selected by their peers for inclusion in The Best Lawyers in America® 2009 (Copyright 2008 by Woodward/White, Inc., of Aiken, S.C.), up by four attorneys over the 2008 edition, and the most attorneys from any law firm in Denver.
Sherman & Howard was also ranked number one in Colorado in the areas of Administrative Law, Antitrust Law, Communications Law, Construction Law, Corporate Law, Employee Benefits Law, Entertainment Law, Labor & Employment Law, Public Finance Law, Sports Law, Structured Finance Law, and Trusts and Estates Law.
Sherman & Howard was ranked number one in Denver in the areas of Administrative Law, Antitrust Law, Communications Law, Construction Law, Corporate Law, Employee Benefits Law, Entertainment Law, Labor and Employment Law, Leveraged Buyouts and Private Equity Law, Mergers & Acquisitions Law, Sports Law, Structured Finance Law, Tax Law and Trusts and Estates Law. Two attorneys from the firm's Phoenix, Arizona office and two attorneys from the firm's Reno, Nevada office, Swendseid & Stern*, were also recognized.
The 2009 edition is the 15th edition of The Best Lawyers in America. 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 25,000 leading attorneys cast almost two million votes on the legal abilities of other lawyers in their specialties, 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."
