Congratulations to partners Kelly Cobb, Steve Ladik, Shawn Orme, and Paige Taylor in the firm’s Texas practice for being listed in the 2017 edition of Texas’ Best Lawyers for their professional accomplishments. These four outstanding attorneys have been recognized as “Best Lawyers” in the Immigration category.
Shawn has also been named 2017 "Lawyer of the Year" in Houston. The “Lawyer of the Year” is awarded to individual attorneys with the highest overall peer feedback for a specific practice area and geographic region. Best Lawyers recognizes only one attorney as "Lawyer of the Year" for each specialty and location.
Inclusion in Best Lawyers is based solely on peer review, and the consensus opinion of the leading lawyers about the professional abilities of their colleagues within the same geographical and legal practice area.
