Two Attorneys From the Law Firm of Carnahan, Evans, Cantwell & Brown, P.C. Included in The Best Lawyers in America® 2016 and the Firm named to the 2016 “Best Law Firms” List
Springfield, Mo. — Thomas D. Peebles, Jr. and Joseph D. Sheppard, III were recently selected by their peers for inclusion in The Best Lawyers in America® 2016 and the Firm received a Tier 1 ranking in the 2016 Edition of U.S. News – Best Lawyers “Best Law Firms” list.
Since it was first published in 1983, Best Lawyers has become universally regarded as the definitive guide to legal excellence. Because Best Lawyers is based on an exhaustive peer-review survey in which more than 36,000 leading attorneys cast almost 4.4 million votes on the legal abilities of other lawyers in their practice areas, and because lawyers are not required or allowed to pay a fee to be listed, inclusion in Best Lawyers is considered a singular honor. Corporate Counsel magazine has called Best Lawyers “the most respected referral list of attorneys in practice.” Firms included in the “Best Law Firms” list are recognized for professional excellence with impressive ratings from clients and peers and being listed shows a unique combination of quality law practice and extensive legal expertise.
Mr. Peebles focuses his practice in the areas of estate and wealth transfer planning and estate and trust administration. Mr. Sheppard focuses his litigation and transactional practice in the areas of business, corporate, employment real estate, intellectual property and securities.
CECB is a locally owned law firm formed in 1979. The firm currently has 17 attorneys.
