Since 1983, Primmer attorneys have been recognized as the Best Lawyers in America. For the past 41 years, the law firm of Primmer Piper Eggleston & Cramer has had attorneys named on the Best Lawyers in America list. This year, the firm had 24 attorneys recognized by the 2025 edition of the publication. Primmer also had two attorneys named as the prestigious “Lawyer of the Year”, an award that only is awarded to one attorney for that specific practice area in a specific business community.
Primmer attorneys Jon R. Eggleston and L. Jonathan Ross have each been named to the list for the past 41 consecutive years. Eggleston made the list this year for his work in Corporate Law, Tax Law and Trusts and Estates, while Ross earned his 41st year for his work in Family Law.
Of the awards, Managing Director Shireen Hart said, “I am so pleased to be able to celebrate the successes of our talented team. For over 40 years, Primmer has been underscoring our reputation in the community with awards like these, and I could not be more proud of my colleagues who have been recognized for the hard work in their respective fields.”
Best Lawyers in America bestows annual awards to the legal community based on compiling exhaustive peer-review surveys on each candidate. Best Lawyers operates in 76 countries around the world, and has served as a resource for identifying top legal talent for the past four decades.
