Williams Simons & Landis is proud to have Fred I. Williams listed in the 2026 edition of The Best Lawyers in America® in the fields of intellectual property litigation, patent litigation, and patent law.
Since it was first published in 1983, Best Lawyers® has become universally regarded as the definitive guide to legal excellence. Best Lawyers lists are compiled based on an exhaustive peer-review evaluation. Each year, more than 13 million confidential evaluations are collected worldwide, contributing to one of the legal industry’s most rigorous and trusted vetting processes. Only about 5% of lawyers in the United States are recognized, reflecting the selectivity and credibility of the results.
For the 2026 edition of The Best Lawyers in America®, more than 26 million evaluations were analyzed, which resulted in more than 81,000 leading lawyers honored in the new edition. Lawyers are not required nor allowed to pay a fee to be listed; therefore, inclusion in Best Lawyers® is considered a singular honor.
