Plunkett Cooney attorneys named to 2023 list of Ones to Watch

“Ones to Watch” honorees typically have been in practice for five to nine years, focusing on one or more of the 77 areas of expertise that were recognized. The methodology for determining these awards is the same as the one used to select Best Lawyers: a peer-review survey in which lawyers within their own geographic region nominate their peers. These lawyers are not allowed to select nominees from the same area(s) in which they practice, and it is not a fee-based listing.

Below are the Plunkett Cooney attorneys who have received 2023 Best Lawyers “Ones to Watch in America™” recognition:
