As it enters its 21st year of business, DelCotto Law Group is honored that two of its attorneys have received the prestigious “Lawyer of the Year” awards in bankruptcy for 2025 for Lexington, Kentucky. Dean Langdon was named Best Lawyers® 2025 Bankruptcy “Lawyer of the Year” in the 30th Edition of The Best Lawyers in America© in the practice area of Litigation – Bankruptcy. Laura Day DelCotto was named 2025 “Lawyer of the Year” in the practice areas of Bankruptcy and Creditor Debtor Rights/Insolvency and Reorganization Law and Bet-the-Company Litigation. While both Dean and Laura Day have been selected in prior years, the fact that both were selected in the same year is a meaningful recognition for DelCotto Law Group and its entire team.
Since it was first published in 1983, Best Lawyers® has become universally regarded as the definitive guide to legal excellence. Best Lawyers recognitions are compiled based on an exhaustive Purely Peer Review® evaluation. More than 184,000 industry leading lawyers are eligible to vote (from around the world), and we have received more than 25.8 million evaluations on the legal abilities of other lawyers based on their specific practice areas around the world.
For the 2025 edition of The Best Lawyers in America®, more than 23 million votes were analyzed, which resulted in more than 80,000 leading lawyers included in the milestone 31st edition.
For the 2025 edition of Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch® in America, more than 4 million votes were analyzed, which resulted in more than 27,000 lawyers honored in the new edition.
“Law Firm of the Year” awards recognize a single top firm for its work in a specific legal practice area nationwide. Awards are determined based on a handful of factors including lawyer feedback, the number of lawyers included in Best Lawyers® for that firm and practice area, the number of office locations a firm has, historical analysis of the firm’s “Lawyer of the Year” awards, materials submitted by firms and the firm’s overall scope and areas of expertise.
“Lawyer of the Year” honors are awarded annually to only one lawyer per practice area in each region with extremely high overall feedback from their peers, making it an exceptional distinction.
Lawyers are not required nor allowed to pay a fee to be listed; therefore, inclusion in Best Lawyers is considered a singular honor.
