Memphis, TN, United States, August 17, 2023 – Five Burch, Porter and Johnson PLLC attorneys were honored by Best Lawyers as the 2024 “Lawyer of the Year”. 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 five honored Attorneys are:
David J. Harris (Litigation – Banking & Finance)
Douglas F. Halijan (Trademark Law)
Les Jones (Personal Injury Litigation – Plaintiffs)
Nathan A. Bicks (Litigation – Land Use and Zoning) and (Litigation – Municipal)
