November 8, 2004 – PORTLAND, ME – Fourteen attorneys from Preti
Flaherty offices in Portland, Augusta and Concord, NH have been selected by
their peers for inclusion in The Best Lawyers in America®
2005-2006 (Copyright 2004 by Woodward/White, Inc., of Aiken, S.C.).
Since its inception in 1983, Best Lawyers has become universally regarded
as the definitive guide to legal excellence in the United States.
One of Northern New England's largest law firms, Preti Flaherty has
built a sophisticated practice, with an international reach, dedicated service
and multi-state litigation experience. Because Best Lawyers is based on
an exhaustive peer-review survey in which 16,000 leading attorneys throughout
the country cast more than a half million votes on the legal abilities of other
lawyers in their specialties, 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.”
“Our reputation for high-powered legal talent, and exceptional credentials
working with state and local governments, is reaffirmed with thisprestigious
recognition from Best Lawyers,” said Harold Pachios, Preti Flaherty Managing
