The Best Lawyers in America® has named Denis Fitzgibbons its Phoenix “Lawyer of the Year” in Municipal Law for 2027.
It is Denis’s second “Lawyer of the Year” selection. In 2023, he was recognized as Phoenix’s top attorney in the category of “Employment Law – Management.”
Only one attorney in each practice area and designated metropolitan region is honored as a “Lawyer of the Year.” In Best Lawyers’ annual peer-review survey, those honorees have received the highest overall peer feedback regarding their professional abilities, integrity, and expertise.
Best Lawyers is a widely respected legal referral guide that recognizes the top 5% of practicing attorneys across the U.S. Established in 1981, it relies on a peer review methodology through which existing lawyers confidentially evaluate the professional abilities of their peers within the same geographic region and legal practice area.
