McDonald Carano Receives 19 “Tier 1” Practice Group Awards in Best Law Firms® 2024
McDonald Carano proudly announces that 19 areas of expertise in our Reno and Las Vegas offices received the highest “Tier 1” ranking in the U.S. News–Best Lawyers® “Best Law Firms” 2024 report. Law firms included in the “Best Law Firms” report are recognized for professional excellence with consistently impressive ratings from clients and peers. Firms that receive the Tier 1 designation reflect the highest level of respect a firm can earn among other leading lawyers and clients from the same communities and practice areas. As the “Best Law Firms” report explains, “achieving a tiered ranking signals a unique combination of quality law practice and breadth of legal expertise.”
To be eligible for a ranking, a firm must also first have a lawyer recognized in the specific area of practice in the associated Best Lawyers in America® report, which recognizes only 6% of lawyers practicing in the United States. McDonald Carano also proudly announces that 23 Reno office lawyers and 17 Las Vegas office lawyers have been selected by their peers for inclusion in the 2024 edition of Best Lawyers in America® and four lawyers received Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch® in America awards.
