Chambers and Partners survey of law firms has ranked multiple Dorsey & Whitney LLP practice groups and individual lawyers in Alaska as among the best. Three Dorsey practice groups in Alaska received the top ranking from Chambers (Band One) and five different Dorsey attorneys were individually ranked, several in multiple practice areas. The Dorsey lawyers and practices recognized are:

  • Corporate/M&A: Richard Rosston, Michael Mills, Spencer Sneed
  • Bankruptcy: Michael Mills, Spencer Sneed
  • Litigation: Jahna Lindemuth, Robert Bundy, Spencer Sneed
  • Real Estate: Richard Rosston

In their annual review of the US legal services market, Chambers ranks practices and lawyers within states and at the national level. The Chambers rankings are based on an intensive on-going research methodology that includes in-depth interviews of lawyers and their clients.

“We are pleased that Chambers has ranked numerous Dorsey lawyers and practices among the best in Alaska”, said Jahna Lindemuth, head of Dorsey’s Anchorage office. “We have a strong team that consistently produces outstanding legal work and exceptional client service.”

Dorsey recently expanded its Anchorage office with the addition of two lawyers and a paralegal. Katherine Demarest joined as an associate in the Trial group. Kate clerked for both the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals and the Minnesota Supreme Court. Amber Kocsis, an associate in the Corporate group, transferred to Anchorage from Dorsey’s Minneapolis office. Amber was born and raised in Alaska. She is a Doyon shareholder. Dorsey also added Rebeca Mosquera-Durling, a bilingual lawyer from Panama, as a legal assistant. These additions bring further depth to Dorsey’s highly regarded Anchorage team.
