Dallas, Texas – Scheef & Stone, LLP has been awarded the Best for Complex Commercial Litigation in Texas Legal Award by Acquisition International (AI), a monthly magazine produced by AI Global Media Ltd. The awards are given solely on merit and are awarded to commend those most deserving for their ingenuity and hard work, distinguishing them from their competitors and proving them worthy of recognition. AI is widely respected within the legal industry for their in-depth research to determine the winners of their awards.
“We are honored to have received this recognition,” said Kelly Crawford, co-founding partner at Scheef & Stone. “Our litigators work very hard on behalf of our clients to remain ahead of the curve in legal strategies, cutting-edge resolutions tactics and competitive approaches to achieve the results our clients expect.

Political and economic issues have also affected the markets globally, and lawyers are increasingly having to adapt to ever evolving legislation and regulation. In addition, as the market becomes increasingly global the rise in cross-border issues means legal professionals are having to constantly update their skills.
Because of these challenges, the 2016 Legal Awards, which are now in their fifth year, act as the ultimate guide to recognizing those talented attorneys who are the very best available within the worldwide legal industry.
