The National Law Journal has once again recognized Panish | Shea | Ravipudi LLP as one of America’s Elite Trial Lawyers. The publication has included the firm among 50 law firms from across the country that are on the cutting edge of plaintiff-side work and have achieved the largest awards for their clients over a 12-month period.
“We congratulate all the firms chosen for this distinction and are honored to be included among them,” said founding partner Brian Panish. “We work hard to create change and obtain justice for our clients and appreciate the National Law Journal for recognizing our results over the past year.”
Only those firms that have obtained $40 million in awards or had four or more cases totally more than $15 million from July 1, 2015 and July 1, 2016 qualify for the 2016 Elite Trial Lawyers recognition. Since 2015, Panish | Shea | Ravipudi LLP has obtained five multi-million dollar jury verdicts, including a $20,500,000 for the mother of a 15-year-old student who was tragically killed after being hit by a car while crossing a highway to reach a school bus stop and $13,935,550 for a young man who suffered head trauma and multiple fractures after he was struck by a car while walking on a sidewalk.
In all, the top 50 firms’ recoveries totaled $11.2 billion.
The 2016 Elite Trial Lawyers honorees will be recognized at a dinner in New York City in early December.
