Hartzog Conger Cason is pleased to announce that 26 lawyers have been included in the 2027 edition of The Best Lawyers in America®. Since it was first published in 1983, Best Lawyers has become universally regarded as the definitive guide to legal excellence.
“Best Lawyers’ recognition process is a key indicator of legal expertise and credibility for clients and the broader legal profession, providing valuable third-party validation in a highly competitive industry,.” said Best Lawyers CEO Phillip Greer. “Because Best Lawyers honorees are selected anew every year, clients can feel confident that they are reviewing not only the top legal talent but the most current legal talent nationwide.”
