24 Tucker Arensberg Lawyers Named Among the Best Lawyers in America® “Lawyer of the Year” and as Ones to Watch in 2024

PITTSBURGH, August 21, 2023 – Tucker Arensberg is pleased to announce that 24 attorneys were recently recognized in the 2024 edition of The Best Lawyers in America® and Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch® in America. Additionally, Gary P. Hunt Named 2024 Best Lawyers® “Lawyer of the Year” in the Pittsburgh area.

Lawyers on The Best Lawyers in America and the Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch in America lists are divided by geographic region and practice areas. They are reviewed by their peers based on professional expertise and undergo an authentication process to make sure they are in current practice and in good standing.

Candidates can only be considered for one recognition at a time, either Ones to Watch or traditional Best Lawyers awards. “Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch” is not a seed list to “The Best Lawyers” and all hopeful candidates must be nominated, vetted by their peers, and undergo an authentication process before they are recognized by Best Lawyers. Lawyers are not required nor allowed to pay a fee to be listed; therefore, recognition by Best Lawyers is considered a singular distinction.

Only a single lawyer in each practice area and designated metropolitan area is honored as the “Lawyer of the Year,” making this a significant and coveted accolade. These lawyers are selected based on particularly impressive voting averages received during the peer review assessments. Receiving this designation reflects the high level of respect a lawyer has earned among other leading lawyers in the same communities and the same practice areas for their abilities, their professionalism, and their integrity.

The complete list of Tucker Arensberg attorneys recognized and the categories for which they were honored follows below.
