Roshka DeWulf & Patten, a Phoenix-based business law firm representing clients in litigation and regulatory issues, announced the firm has been ranked among the 2015 “Best Law Firms” by U.S. News & World Report and Best Lawyers®. Roshka DeWulf & Patten achieved first-tier ranking both nationally and in the Phoenix Metro area.

Firms included on the list of 2015 “Best Law Firms” are recognized for professional excellence with consistently impressive ratings from clients and peers. Achieving a ranking signals a strong combination of quality law practice and breadth of legal expertise. To be eligible for “Best Law Firms,” the firm must have at least one attorney listed in The Best Lawyers of America, which recognizes the top 4 percent of practicing attorneys nationwide. Four attorneys at Roshka DeWulf & Patten have achieved this honor.

“We are incredibly proud of our team, as it’s a significant accomplishment to be recognized at any level. This recognition is a testament to our hard work, dedication to clients and steadfast commitment to representing our clients ethically and effectively,” said Founding Member Paul Roshka.

More than 17,000 attorneys provided nearly 600,000 law firm assessments, and nearly 7,500 clients provided close to 40,000 evaluations. The 2015 rankings are based on the highest number of participating firms and client ballots to date, making the recognition more competitive and valued.
