Deborah Hankinson Honored Among Top 3 Lawyers in Texas for Fifth Time
For the fifth time since 2012, Dallas attorney and former Texas Supreme Court Justice Deborah Hankinson has earned recognition by Texas Super Lawyers as one of the Top Three attorneys in the state.
In addition to practice-specific recognition, Super Lawyers annually awards supplemental honors to the state’s top attorneys regardless of practice focus based on peer feedback. Hankinson, whose practice focuses on alternative dispute resolution and related services, was the second-highest rated attorney in the 2019 listing.
Hankinson also was selected among the Top 50 Women and Top 100 Dallas-Fort Worth attorneys in the recently released publication. She has been recognized on the Texas Super Lawyers list every year since its inaugural 2003 publication.
Texas Super Lawyers selections are based on peer nominations and evaluations, as well as independent editorial research. No more than 5 percent of eligible Texas attorneys are chosen each year for practice-specific recognition. The full 2019 listing will appear in Texas Monthly and in the Texas edition of Super Lawyers magazine.
Since re-entering private practice in 2002 following her tenure on the Supreme Court, she has garnered wide-ranging professional recognition for her ADR work from legal guides and business publications, including Chambers USA, Benchmark Appellate, The National Law Journal, Texas Lawyer, Dallas Business Journal, D Magazine, the Dallas Bar Association and Lawdragon. She also recently was recognized for a 13th time in The Best Lawyers in America guide.
