Poyner Spruill Welcomes Education Law Practice Group

Poyner Spruill LLP is pleased to share twelve firm attorneys were named to Business North Carolina’s 2023 Legal Elite. Since 2002, Business North Carolina has honored attorneys with the Legal Elite publication, a listing of the state’s top lawyers in business-related categories. The winning attorneys, who were chosen by their peers, were recently honored in a special section of the magazine’s January publication.

Poyner Spruill attorneys to receive the honor include:

Dave Krosner – Business

Matt Bouchard – Construction

Ben Buskirk – Construction

Steve Epstein – Family

Karen Chapman – Litigation

Nick Ellis – Litigation

Charlie Davis – Tax & Estate Planning

J.M. Durnovich – Young Guns

Four Poyner Spruill attorneys are recognized in Legal Elite’s Hall of Fame:

Glenn Dunn – Environmental

Drew Erteschik – Appellate

Susie Gibbons – Employment

Keith Johnson – Environmental

Active members of the North Carolina State Bar are eligible to vote for peers deemed to be at the top of their fields. Attorneys can’t vote for themselves or for members of the Legal Elite Hall of Fame — previous top vote-getters in a particular specialty. Votes for lawyers from another firm are weighted more heavily than votes for colleagues at the same firm.
