Additionally, Van Winkle attorney Robert H. Haggard, Trusts and Estates, has been named to the Legal Elite Hall of Fame. Making this list means that a lawyer has been recognized by his or her peers year after year.
Since 2002, Business North Carolina magazine has honored Tar Heel lawyers by publishing Business North Carolina’s Legal Elite, a listing of the state’s top lawyers in business-related categories. Winners are chosen not by Business North Carolina editors but by the state’s lawyers.
Of the thousands practicing in the states, less than 3% were selected as a Legal Elite this year. “We are proud to have such talented and skilled attorneys with our firm” says President Phil Smith.
