Partners and Co-Founders Marc Lewis and Paul Llewellyn were recently selected by Benchmark Litigation as “Benchmark Litigation Stars” in their “Definitive Guide to America’s Leading Firms and Attorneys” 2024 edition.  Additionally, Partners Ryan Erickson and Evangeline Burbidge were named as “Benchmark Litigation Future Stars” for the upcoming year.

These rankings are based on extensive interviews with litigators, dispute resolution specialists, and clients as well as analysis of the market’s most important cases and firm developments.  As the definitive guide to the world’s leading litigation firms and lawyers, Benchmark recognizes attorneys who have demonstrated the ability to reliably handle complex, high-stakes cases in multiple jurisdictions.

Lewis & Llewellyn is pleased to announce that partners Marc Lewis, Paul Llewellyn, Ryan Erickson, and Becca Furman have been selected by The National Law Journal (“NLJ”) to its 2022 list of Plaintiffs’ Attorneys Trailblazers.  The NLJ selected just 50 plaintiffs’ attorneys across the United States who it characterized as “truly agents of change.”  In selecting the firm for this honor, the NLJ recognized the firm’s groundbreaking work bringing civil lawsuits on behalf of survivors of sexual abuse.  Lewis & Llewellyn is unique among litigation boutiques in that it splits its practice approximately 50-50 on the plaintiff and defense side.  By applying the same aggressive advocacy it deploys on behalf of its business litigation clients, the firm has recovered tens of millions of dollars on behalf of survivors of sexual abuse and has driven institutional change to help prevent future instances of abuse.  A copy of the NLJ’s profile of the firm can be found here.
