Williams Mullen is pleased to announce that 13 attorneys have been named to Business North Carolina magazine’s 2019 “Legal Elite.” Business North Carolina sends ballots to every member of the N.C. State Bar living in North Carolina and asks whom they would rate the best among the current best in 16 categories. Lawyers are not allowed to vote for themselves, and they may select members of their firms only if they pick out-of-firm lawyers in the same categories.
In addition, the top vote-getters in each category are inducted into the Legal Elite Hall of Fame and profiled in the magazine. This year, Keith Kapp and Elizabeth Scott earned that distinction.
