We are proud to share that thirteen McCullough Hill attorneys have been selected for inclusion in the 2026 editions of Best Lawyers in America® and Ones to Watch®. The firm’s very strong representation in the areas of Land Use and Zoning; Real Estate; and Environmental law speaks to McCullough Hill’s expertise and reputation as a leader in these practice areas.
Courtney Kaylor was recognized as “Lawyer of the Year” in Seattle in the area of Litigation – Land Use and Zoning. This award is especially notable, as it is given to only one lawyer per practice area and geographic region. This is the second consecutive year that a lawyer at McCullough Hill has received this recognition; Jack McCullough was named “Lawyer of the Year” in Real Estate in 2025.
Issac Patterson was named to the Ones to Watch® list in the area of Land Use and Zoning and Litigation – Environmental.
The Best Lawyers recognition honors attorneys who demonstrate outstanding professional excellence in their respective fields. Each year, Best Lawyers conducts a comprehensive evaluation process that includes client and peer feedback and detailed reviews of individual attorneys to compile its annual list.
