Dysart Taylor McMonigle Brumitt & Wilcox, P.C. is pleased to announce 14 firm attorneys have earned recognition in the 2025 Best Lawyers guide in 16 practice areas. Best Lawyers is a highly regarded peer-reviewed publication that honors top legal professionals.

Notably, shareholders/directors Kathryn Alsobrook and Meghan Litecky moved up to Best Lawyers in 2025 after multiple years of recognition in Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch.

Best Lawyers recognitions are based entirely on peer review, and research is compiled by conducting exhaustive peer review surveys in which tens of thousands of leading lawyers confidentially evaluate their professional peers. It is an honor to have two new attorneys on the list this year and several returning attorneys hitting milestone years of recognition.

Associate attorney B.I. Howard maintained recognition as a “Ones to Watch” honoree. Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch recognizes extraordinary lawyers who have been in private practice for less than 10 years and is based on peer review.

The attorneys honored by Best Lawyers and their respective ranked practice areas are:
