Meissner Tierney Fisher & Nichols is proud to announce that nineteen of our outstanding attorneys have been recognized in the 2027 edition of The Best Lawyers in America®.

This year’s recognition is especially meaningful, as every shareholder at the firm has been named a Best Lawyer®, while eight associate attorneys have earned recognition as Ones to Watch®. These honors reflect not only exceptional legal talent and unwavering dedication to clients but also the bright future of the next generation of leaders at our firm.

Recognition by Best Lawyers® is based exclusively on an extensive peer-review process, making inclusion one of the legal profession’s most respected distinctions. Being selected is a testament to each attorney’s professional excellence, integrity, and the esteem of their colleagues.

We are incredibly proud of our attorneys for this well-deserved achievement and congratulate each of them on this outstanding honor. Their commitment to excellence continues to strengthen our firm and the exceptional service we provide to our clients and communities.
