MiLW announces ‘Michigan's Go To Lawyers’ for business transactions

Michigan Lawyers Weekly is pleased to announce the “Go To Lawyers” for business transactions.

Now in its fifth year, the “Go To Lawyers” program recognizes leading lawyers in a particular field of law as nominated by their peers. We honor those lawyers who practice business transactions as our next category in 2024.

Earlier this year, we presented top lawyers in employment. Last year, we featured top lawyers in construction law, business litigation, commercial real estate and negligence law, for plaintiffs’ and defense side, including medical malpractice, personal injury, premises liability and products liability.

A “Go To Lawyer” is:

• A lawyer who is an expert in his or her field, well-versed in the nuances of the case law, statutes and regulations clients will encounter.



• A lawyer who is experienced and enjoys a record of success, with many cases and/or transactions that give testimony to the quality advice he or she can provide.



• A lawyer to whom other lawyers make referrals because of his or her expertise and accomplishments.



• A lawyer who can think creatively and identify all options for a client.



• A lawyer you would name when a friend from another state calls and says she has a client who needs some legal help in a given part of our state.
