55 Williams Mullen Attorneys Named to Virginia Business Magazine’s Legal Elite for 2019

Williams Mullen is pleased to announce that 55 attorneys have been named among the state’s “Legal Elite” for 2019 by Virginia Business magazine. Virginia Business annually polls more than 14,000 attorneys in the commonwealth, asking them to select from their peers the best lawyers in each practice category. This year, 1,133 attorneys were selected, which is about one quarter of the nominations that were received.

Williams Mullen President and CEO Woody Fowler is one of three Williams Mullen attorneys to have been named to Virginia Business magazine’s “Legal Elite” every year since the list’s inception in 2000. He is joined by William D. Bayliss (Civil Litigation, Richmond) and Thomas R. Frantz (Business Law, Virginia Beach).

“I feel very honored that, for each of the last 20 years, I have been recognized by my peers as an elite practitioner,” said Fowler. “I am not sure I deserve this recognition, but I certainly do appreciate it. We should all aspire to earn the respect of others in our profession.”
