LANSING, Mich. – 44 attorneys from Foster Swift Collins & Smith PC were recently selected by their peers for inclusion in The Best Lawyers in America® 2016

Since its inception in 1983, Best Lawyers® has become universally regarded as the definitive guide to legal excellence. Because Best Lawyers® is based on an exhaustive peer-review survey in which more than 41,000 leading attorneys cast almost 3.9 million votes on the legal abilities of other lawyers in their practice areas, and because lawyers are not required or allowed to pay a fee to be listed, inclusion in Best Lawyers® is considered a singular honor. Corporate Counsel Magazine has called Best Lawyers® “the most respected referral list of attorneys in practice.”
