Twelve Preti Flaherty attorneys, including two new additions, have been selected for inclusion in the 2014 Chambers USA: America's Leading Lawyers for Business, the highly regarded directory of leading attorneys and law firms in the United States.

Each attorney was assessed on qualities including technical legal ability, professional conduct, client service, commercial awareness/astuteness, diligence, commitment and other qualities most valued by his or her clients. Chambers USA researchers based the rankings on more than 14,000 in-depth interviews with leading attorneys and in-house counsel.
