Marshall Dennehey is proud to highlight the firm’s 121 attorneys who have been recognized in the 2024 editions of The Best Lawyers in America® and the Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch® in America. Less than 6% of all practicing lawyers in the U.S. were selected by their peers for this recognition.

Additionally, five of the firm’s attorneys received the Best Lawyers® 2024 “Lawyer of the Year” awards in their respective practice areas and demographic regions. 

Marshall Dennehey has been named a finalist in The American Lawyer Regional Litigation Departments of the Year awards in both New Jersey and Florida. Winners will be announced at Law.com’s annual awards gala in New York, NY on November 15, 2023.

“This accolade affirms the hard work, dedication to client service and litigation prowess of our New Jersey and Florida attorneys, and reflects positively on the entire firm,” said Marshall Dennehey President & CEO, G. Mark Thompson. “We couldn’t be more proud of our team.”

To further support clients facing complex and high-exposure litigation resulting from catastrophic events, Marshall Dennehey has launched a Catastrophic Claims Litigation Practice Group within its Casualty Department. Attorneys in the practice group defend clients against claims arising from large-scale accidents, explosions, environmental disasters, construction collapses, high-rise fires, product liability claims, mass shootings and more. 

Twenty-seven attorneys across Marshall Dennehey's six Pennsylvania offices have been selected to the 2023 edition of Pennsylvania Super Lawyers magazine. A Thomson Reuters business, Super Lawyers is a rating service of lawyers from more than 70 practice areas who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. Each year, no more than five percent of the lawyers in the state are selected for this honor. The selection process is multi-phased and includes independent research, peer nominations and peer evaluations.

Among the report’s findings, Marshall Dennehey was also one of only 50 law firms named to the BTI Midsize Client Service Masters list.

Marshall Dennehey is pleased to announce that 20 attorneys, 12 men and eight women, have been elevated to shareholder effective January 1, 2023.
