Jackson Kelly PLLC is pleased to announce that 64 of the firm’s lawyers were recently named in the 2022 edition of The Best Lawyers in America® and 16 attorneys were named as Best Lawyers’ 2022 Lawyers: Ones to Watch in America, which recognizes extraordinary lawyers who have been in private practice for less than ten years in the United States.

In addition, ten Jackson Kelly PLLC lawyers were named as Best Lawyers® 2022 "Lawyer of the Year."

Since it was first published in 1983, Best Lawyers® has become universally regarded as the definitive guide to legal excellence. Best Lawyers lists are compiled based on an exhaustive peer-review evaluation. More than 113,000 industry leading lawyers are eligible to vote (from around the world), and we have received more than 15 million evaluations on the legal abilities of other lawyers based on their specific practice areas around the world. For the 2022 edition of The Best Lawyers in America®, more than 10.8 million votes were analyzed, which resulted in more than 66,000 leading lawyers being included in the new edition. Lawyers are not required or allowed to pay a fee to be listed; therefore, inclusion in Best Lawyers is considered a singular honor.
