Should include a "Trust & Estate" and a "Tax" category
ReplyDelete10:58, agreed. Those "Trust & Estate" lawyers always seem to be forgotten. I know Steve Oshins at Oshins & Associates and a few of the other T&E lawyers at thst firm should be on the list if they'd actually recognize that category.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the last two comments re: T&E.
ReplyDeleteOh you corporate bankruptcy hacks. How I loathe you.
ReplyDeleteseems like the T&E statements as to which T&E Attorneys should have been nominated, seem to be pretty name specific as to naming CERTAIN attorneys. Why not just say that there should have been a T&E category?
ReplyDeleteI was the one who named who I thought was obvious. I interviewed with them a few years ago, but didn't get the job (and switched to litigation and like that better anyway). But, yeah, generally T&E should be a category. That's what I meant.
ReplyDeleteTrust and Estate goes to Solomon Dwiggins & Freer, easily. Steve Oshins has nothing on Mark Solomon.
ReplyDeleteI work for one of the top family law firms, so I see which firms generally doing the trusts for our wealthiest clients. The Oshins & Associates firm and the Burr firm definitely do the most. After that, we get alot from the large firms (Lionel Sawyer, Kummer Kaempfer, Alverson Taylor and a few others) and then no other firms other than a few other large firms stand out in my mind.
ReplyDeleteSolomon Dwiggins & Freer is a good probate and trust litigation firm, but I don't know that they do much estate planning. So it depends on how you define T&E.
ReplyDeleteThe Best Lawyers in America book lists Jeffrey L. Burr, Richard A. Oshins, Steven J. Oshins and Layne T. Rushforth as the best T&E lawyers in Las Vegas. I don't know any of them, I haven't even heard of any of them, but I was curious and looked it up.
ReplyDeleteThe pick for top IP attorney is humorous.
ReplyDeleteGee, do you find the IP winner humorous because she screwed up and lost the Wynn account for her firm? Go figure.
ReplyDelete@ 3:36
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like an interesting story, care to elaborate?
3:36 She's about as bright as her "teacher" who happens to be mentioned in LV Business Press article. But GT is BIG LAW, so they must be good!?!?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the sharing...............

It's unfortunate that individuals claim to be war heroes in order to attain financial gain. Reporters should always check the actual military records whenever a person claims to be a war hero.
