2007 began with a flurry of jury trials--3 total during the first six weeks of the year. In mid-April, Dennie Hardin received the results of the Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings, which is composed of two aspects--ethics and legal ability. For those candidates who receive a "V" for strong ethics, the reviewer is then asked to evaluate the candidate's legal ability. Hardin received the highest rating possible for an attorney practicing the years he has, a "BV" rating, which denotes high to very high legal abilities.

In other news, Megan O'Hern was hired in late 2006 and is now the firm's receptionist/file clerk. She previously worked at Keen & Hardin.
