Hecker Fink Partner Joshua Matz has been named to Forbes’ inaugural “America’s Best-In-State Lawyers” list. The list recognizes outstanding lawyers in private practice across the United States.

The list highlights top-tier attorneys who are not only distinguished by their deep experience in specific practice areas, but also by their commitment to giving back through pro bono work. Honorees have earned the respect of peers and clients, boasting impressive track records and a reputation for excellence.

Methodology:

To create the inaugural list of America’s Best-In-State Lawyers, Forbes assembled an editorial team with broad experience in law practice, coverage of legal news, and knowledge of the legal marketplace. The team then identified a wide pool of eligible candidates through hundreds of interviews with industry insiders, outside nominations, editorial research, and an independent advisory board of experts. To qualify for consideration, lawyers were required to be active and licensed—and thousands of attorneys from a variety of backgrounds, specializations and jurisdictions were ultimately considered.
