With 23 attorneys listed in 2017, the firm looks to continue growing the already broad range of services we provide to clients.
One of the most reliable, unbiased sources of legal referrals, Best Lawyers has published their list for more than three decades. Its peer review process and independent evaluation of nominated attorneys offers a comprehensive approach to determining the merits of each individual recipient and ensures that each attorney honored as a Best Lawyer will provide the highest quality client service, along with the greatest legal ability.
Sandberg Phoenix attorneys have been consistently named to Best Lawyers since 1999, with several also receiving honors as “Lawyer of the Year” in their respective practice areas. By focusing on putting our clients first and consistently delivering excellence and value in our work, Sandberg Phoenix continues to grow, adding new attorneys whose legal practices offer complementary services to existing clients.
