Pope Flynn has received a Tier 1 metropolitan ranking in the practice area of Public Finance from The Best Lawyers in America®.  Best Lawyers® collaborates with U.S. News & World Report to rank nearly 10,000 U.S. law firms by practice area and collects data from client and lawyer evaluations, peer reviews from leading attorneys, and review of firm-submitted information.

To be eligible for a Best Law Firms® ranking, a firm also must have at least one individual lawyer included in the annual Best Lawyers peer-review ranking.  Pope Flynn has two such attorneys recognized by Best Lawyers in the area of Public Finance law, Margaret Pope, who has been listed in Best Lawyers for more than 10 years, and Joe Lucas, who has been listed in Best Lawyers since 2005.

“Since our founding, we’ve focused on public finance, government, and utilities law,” said Belton Zeigler, managing partner of the firm.  “We’re honored to receive recognition for our work in public finance by our peers and a national, legal peer-review publication, but we’re even more gratified by the trust that so many leaders in cities, towns, special purpose districts, and public entities around South Carolina have placed in us.”
