MacElree Harvey is proud to share that 13 attorneys have been selected for inclusion in the 2026 Pennsylvania Super Lawyers and Rising Stars lists.
These prestigious designations, awarded by Thomson Reuters, recognize outstanding professional achievement and peer recognition. No more than five percent of attorneys in each state are selected for Super Lawyers, and no more than two-and-a-half percent for Rising Stars.
A Record of Sustained Peer Recognition
This year’s honorees represent a wide range of practice areas, including business litigation, business and corporate law, land use and zoning, criminal defense, family law, personal injury, general litigation, estate and probate, and trusts and estates. Twelve attorneys have been recognized for multiple years, 11 for five or more years, and six for more than a decade — a reflection of the firm’s depth of experience and long-standing commitment to clients across Pennsylvania and Delaware.
