This is Mr. Thomas’ most recent Lawdragon honor.

“I am humbled by this recognition, but our success is attributable to the entire team,” said Mr. Thomas. “We have been focused on establishing a strong foundation for the future of this firm and I am really proud of the relationships we have with our clients and the effort our people have invested in making this a great place to practice law.”
