Best Lawyers in America has named nine attorneys from Conrad O’Brien for inclusion in its 2018 edition. Best Lawyers is the oldest and most respected peer-review publication in the legal profession. As described by the Best Lawyers website, Best Lawyers compiles lists of outstanding attorneys by conducting exhaustive peer-review surveys in which thousands of leading lawyers confidentially evaluate their professional peers. A listing in Best Lawyers is widely regarded within the legal professional as a prestigious honor, conferred on a lawyer by his or her peers. For more than three decades, Best Lawyers lists have earned the respect of the profession, the media, and the public as the most reliable, unbiased source of legal referrals anywhere.
Additionally, two attorneys received the distinction from Best Lawyers in America as a “Lawyer of the Year.” This distinction is awarded to individual attorneys with the highest overall peer-feedback for a specific Practice Area and geographic location.
