Moss & Barnett is pleased to congratulate our lawyers who have been included in the 2023 edition of The Best Lawyers in America^® and Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch in America™, with special congratulations to Kevin M. Busch, Christopher D. Stall, and James J. Vedder who have been named as the 2023 "Lawyers of the Year" in Minneapolis.

Recognition by Best Lawyers is based entirely on peer review. The Best Lawyers methodology is designed to capture, as accurately as possible, the consensus opinion of leading lawyers about the professional abilities of their colleagues within the same geographical area and legal practice area. Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch, the newest award initiative from Best Lawyers, recognizes attorneys who are earlier in their careers for outstanding professional excellence in private practice in the United States. Lawyers being honored as “Lawyer of the Year” are selected based on particularly impressive voting averages received during the exhaustive peer-review assessments Best Lawyers conducts with thousands of leading lawyers each year. Receiving this designation reflects the high level of respect a lawyer has earned among other leading lawyers in the same communities and the same practice areas for their abilities, their professionalism, and their integrity.
