21 Dinsmore Attorneys in 60 Practice Areas Honored on 2020 Cincy Leading Lawyers List

Cincy Magazine has named 21 Dinsmore & Shohl attorneys to its 2020 Leading Lawyers list. While Dinsmore’s 235 local attorneys comprise just 3.5 percent of all lawyers in the city, they represent seven percent of the 300 Cincy Leading Lawyers, demonstrating their superlative skills across dozens of practice areas.

All Leading Lawyers were nominated by local peers. The nomination list is then reviewed by the magazine’s editorial committee for final selection.

Dinsmore’s Leading Lawyers include 14 partners, five of counsel and two associates. Among them, they represent 60 services and/or practice groups that Dinsmore offers. The most-awarded areas of practice are Dinsmore’s Corporate & Transactional and Litigation groups, each of which boasts eight Leading Lawyers. Those are followed by Class Action and Product Liability with five Leading Lawyers apiece.

“To have a number of our transactional attorneys recognized in this way by peers is a tremendous honor,” said Dinsmore Corporate Department Chair Bobby Lucas. “It is an acknowledgement of the consistently high-quality legal work and client service provided by Dinsmore’s Corporate department.”
