Nine SD&M Lawyers were recently named 2012 Super Lawyers. SD&M again had the most lawyers recognized in energy and natural resources law, and Steve McConnico made the Texas Top 100 list for the tenth consecutive year. The list appears in the October issue of Texas Monthly magazine. No more than five percent of Texas lawyers receive the honor annually. Candidates are evaluated based on several criteria, including verdicts, settlements, and transactions; representative clients; honors and awards; experience; community service and bar activities; lectures and writings; and education.
