Bell Nunnally Named to "Best Law Firms" List in 14 Practice Areas

A firm-record 14 Bell Nunnally practice areas have been selected for inclusion on the 2020 “Best Law Firms” list, published by Best Lawyers and featured in U.S. News and World Reports, including four practice areas designated as “Tier 1” – the highest ranking in the Dallas/Fort Worth region.

Bell Nunnally is featured in 14 metropolitan categories: Appellate Practice, Commercial Finance Law, Commercial Litigation, Corporate Law, Criminal Defense: White-Collar, Employment Law-Management, Entertainment Law – Motion Pictures and Television, Litigation – Construction, Litigation – Intellectual Property, Litigation – Labor and Employment, Mergers and Acquisitions Law, Real Estate Law, Tax Law and Trusts and Estates Law.

The “Tier 1” ranking practice areas are: Commercial Finance Law, Commercial Litigation, Mergers and Acquisition Law and Real Estate Law.

“Bell Nunnally prides itself on providing the highest possible level of service to our clients and to have our peers recognize us in this way, is a true honor,” said Christopher Trowbridge, managing partner of Bell Nunnally. “Though our practice is nationwide in scope, the Dallas/Fort Worth region is home for all of our employees. To have so many practice areas honored in the top tier in our region, is especially gratifying given the quantity and quality of firms in our area.”

Selection for the “Best Law Firms” listing is based on an intensive peer-review survey and evaluation process that includes data collection and feedback from thousands of clients, lawyers and law firm representatives spanning a wide range of practice areas nationwide.
