Because our attorneys agree to handle only the most serious plaintiff’s cases, our clients receive exhaustive and aggressive representation in negotiations and in trial. Most importantly, our clients are treated with the compassion and respect they deserve.

Nearly all of our attorneys have achieved this honor, reserved solely for the top 5% of lawyers in any state, for multiple years running.
Not settling for inclusion, many of our attorneys have achieved Top 100, Top 50, and Top 10 lists in the Super Lawyers® publication.

Awards are only as good as their sources and what they are founded on.

In the end, our honors are only pointing toward the one thing that matters to our clients: whether or not we can help them. If it’s legal representation you need, Breit Cantor Grana Buckner has the skill, effectiveness, and dedication you’re looking for.
