Aitken Aitken Cohn Among the Best Lawyers in America for 2016-17 Again!

The 2017 Best Lawyers® in America have been announced and Aitken Aitken Cohn attorneys have once again dominated the list!

This is the 30th consecutive year that founding partner Wylie Aitken has received the Best Lawyer distinction, the 5th consecutive years for partners Darren Aitken, Chris Aitken, and Richard Cohn, and the 2nd consecutive years for Ashleigh Aitken, Michael Penn, and Casey Johnson. Furthermore, the firm has the most listed lawyers in any practice area in our corporate headquarters municipality, Santa Ana, with more than double the number of attorneys recognized by Best Lawyers than any other firm in the city.

Some more specifics on this year’s accomplishment:

Personal Injury Litigation

  1. AAC ranked in the top two in the entire Orange County metro for number of lawyers listed in Personal Injury.
  2. AAC is #1 in Santa Ana for the number of lawyers listed in Plaintiffs’ Personal Injury Litigation.

Product Liability

  1. AAC ranked in the top two in the entire Orange County metro for number of lawyers listed in Product Liability (Plaintiffs)
  2. AAC is #1 in Santa Ana for the number of lawyers listed in Plaintiffs’ Product Liability Litigation.

Bet-the-Company Litigation

  1. Long considered the “brass ring” of complex litigation, only ONE lawyer in Santa Ana is named in bet-the-company litigation: Darren O’Leary Aitken.
  2. Further, Darren is one of only 14 total lawyers in all of Orange County to be listed, one of 112 in all of California, and one of 1,668 only in the entire U.S. in this highly prestigious category.

Best Lawyers® is one of the oldest and most respected peer-review publications in the legal profession, widely regarded by both clients and legal professionals as a significant honor. With all of our firm’s qualified attorneys making the prestigious list once again, Aitken Aitken Cohn is honored to be held in such high regard by our colleagues and clients.
