COLUMBIA, S.C. – Robinson Gray is pleased to announce that nine of its attorneys have been named 2021 South Carolina Super Lawyers®, with two of them – members Betsy Gray and Bobby Stepp – making the Top Ten list.
At the same time, four additional lawyers from the firm were selected as 2021 South Carolina “Rising Stars.”
Eleven of the 13 were honored last year as well, evidence of the consistent excellence in which Robinson Gray takes great pride. Attorneys with the firm have appeared on the Super Lawyers list for 14 years now.
The attorneys were selected to the list by peer nominations, independent research and a review by attorneys in the same practice areas. Those selected to Super Lawyers from Robinson Gray, and the practice areas in which they are being honored, include:
