ThompsonMcMullan Selected to U.S. News and World Report’s “Best Law Firms” List

ThompsonMcMullan is pleased to report inclusion in U.S. News and World Report’s “Best Law Firms” 2014 list.
The firm ranked in the following:
  • Metropolitan Tier 1 in Richmond for Commercial Litigation, Elder Law, and Real Estate Law
  • Metropolitan Tier 2 in Richmond for Construction Law, Financial Services Regulation Law, Litigation (Trusts and Estates), and Personal Injury Litigation (Defendants)
  • Metropolitan Tier 3 in Richmond for Banking and Finance Law, and Tax Law
Firms included in the 2014 “Best Law Firms” list are recognized for professional excellence with persistently impressive ratings from clients and peers. Achieving a tiered ranking signals a unique combination of quality law practice and breadth of legal expertise.
“U.S. News has more than two decades of experience in providing the public with the most accurate and in-depth rankings of a wide range of institutions, including our Best Law Schools rankings,” says Tim Smart, Executive Editor of U.S. News & World Report. The 2014 rankings are based on the highest number of participating firms and highest number of client ballots on record. To be eligible for a ranking, a firm must have a lawyer listed in The Best Lawyers in America©, which recognizes the top 4 percent of practicing attorneys in the US. Over 12,000 attorneys provided over 330,000 law firm assessments,and almost 7,000 clients provided close to 20,000 evaluations. In addition, to provide personal insight, a new Law Firm Leaders Survey was implemented in the decision-making process.
Ranked firms, presented in tiers, are listed on a national and/or metropolitan scale. Receiving a tier designation reflects the high level of respect a firm has earned among other leading lawyers and clients in the same communities and the same practice areas for their abilities, their professionalism and their integrity.
