MIAMI - Floridant -- PAG Law proudly announces that twelve of its distinguished attorneys have been recognized in the prestigious 2026 Best Lawyers in America® and Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch® editions—testifying to the firm's excellence and the high esteem in which its practitioners are held by their peers.

As part of its 32nd edition of The Best Lawyers in America®, Best Lawyers continues to honor only the top 5% of U.S. attorneys, with this year's process shaped by nearly 30,000 lawyers casting more than 3.4 million confidential evaluations across roughly 130,000 nominees. The collective scope of this distinction extends across 151 practice areas and more than 203 U.S. metropolitan regions.

Under the Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch® program—the sixth edition of this recognition—rising legal professionals with fewer than 10 years of experience also earn peer-acknowledged honors.
