Oliver Maner Recognized on U.S. News' "Best Law Firms" Rankings for 2023

SAVANNAH, Ga. - Feb. 22, 2023 - PRLog -- Oliver Maner, one of Savannah's most prestigious law firms, was honored by U.S. News & World Report. The Best Lawyers rating entity named the firm to its 2023 list of "Best Law Firms." Earlier this year, 17 attorneys were named to the 2023 Best Lawyers list and three received "Ones to Watch" recognition.

Best Lawyers is the oldest and most respected lawyer-ranking service in the world. Available only in select markets, "Best Law Firm" winners are specific to practice areas. They are determined based on several factors, including feedback from lawyers recognized by Best Lawyers on individual lawyer and firm-wide work, the size and coverage of the firm in a specific practice area, historical analysis of the firm's "Lawyer of the Year" awards in this area, and research surrounding the firm's overall scope and areas of expertise.

"This honor is a testament to the personal service our attorneys give our clients and the level of professionalism they are committed to," said Patrick T. O'Connor, Managing Partner of Oliver Maner. "We'll keep at it and work just as hard in the future to earn the respect of our clients and our peers."

The Best Lawyers recognition is based solely on peer review. The methodology captures, as accurately as possible, the consensus opinion of leading lawyers regarding the professional abilities of their colleagues within the same geographical area and legal practice area. It is a sophisticated, conscientious, rational and transparent survey process designed to elicit meaningful and substantive evaluations of the quality of legal services.
