Patterson Earnhart Real Bird and Wilson, LLP (Native Law Group) proudly announces that eight of our attorneys were included in the 2025 editions of “Best Lawyers in America®”. Native Law Group attorneys have been recognized for the past four years since the firm was founded in 2020.
Attorneys in our Colorado, Washington, D.C. and Wisconsin Offices were recognized. The 2025 “Best Lawyers in America®” included Partners Jeremy Patterson, Thomasina Real Bird, Alvina Earnhart, Samantha Skenandore, Linda Cooper, Ben Fenner, and Of Counsel Attorney Frances Bassett. The 2025 “Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch®” included Partner Mitch Holditch.
Individually, many of our attorneys have long been recognized by Best Lawyers®. Patterson has now earned this recognition eight times. He first appeared in the publication in 2018. Real Bird has been recognized seven times, earning the distinction every year since 2019. Skenandore and Fenner have both been recognized twice beginning in 2024. Holditch has also been recognized over multiple years.
“We are dedicated to providing outstanding legal services and obtaining meaningful results for our clients,” Real Bird remarked. “It is an honor to be recognized by our peers in the legal profession for our work serving tribal governments, tribal business entities, and individual tribal members.”
“Best Lawyers in America®” highlights the top six percent of attorneys in the United States who have been in private practice for ten or more years. They are chosen through a comprehensive peer-review evaluation in which nearly 94,000 attorneys are eligible to vote.
Using the same peer-review methodology as “Best Lawyers in America®,” “Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch®” recognizes associates and other attorneys who are earlier in their careers for their outstanding professional excellence in private practice.
Native Law Group and all our attorneys and staff are proud to have eight of our colleagues included in this esteemed group of attorneys. Through dedication and collaboration the attorneys and staff of Native Law Group all strive to achieve results for our tribal clients every day.
