Fourteen Bondurant attorneys recognized as 2026 Super Lawyers, seven as Rising Stars

Bondurant proudly announces 14 of its attorneys are recognized as Super Lawyers and seven as Rising Stars in the 2026 rankings. Notably, Mike Terry is named one of Georgia’s top 10 attorneys for the fourth consecutive year. 

Each year, no more than five percent of lawyers in the state are selected by Super Lawyers, a Thomson Reuters rating service recognizing outstanding attorneys across more than 70 practice areas. The selection process is based on peer recognition and professional achievement and includes a statewide survey of lawyers, an independent research evaluation of candidates, and peer review by practice area.

The Rising Stars selection process is the same as Super Lawyers, with one exception: to be eligible, a candidate must be either 40 years old or younger or in practice for 10 years or less.
