Attorneys Harmon and Parker Receive Best of the Bar™ Award for 2019

The Best of the Bar™ Medal is commissioned, designed, and minted by the makers of the Pulitzer Prize Medal and the National Medal of Science, and it is awarded to fewer than 1% of licensed attorneys each year. For 2019, both partners at Harmon Parker, P.A. received this prestigious award.

Thomas S. Harmon and Steve D. Parker achieved one of the Top 100 Verdicts in the Nation in 2019, making them eligible for Best of the Bar™ membership. This honor is only bestowed on lawyers who pass a rigorous investigation and verification process.

We are pleased to extend our warmest congratulations to Attorneys Harmon and Parker and to add this accolade to our stellar reputation and our proven track record of success.

What Is Best of the Bar™?

According to the organization’s website:

“Best of the Bar™ was founded by lawyers concerned with the lack of transparency and objective standards that other recognition organizations use to rate attorneys.”

As such, Best of the Bar™ determines its membership using proven results. Only attorneys who have achieved an independently verified Top 100 verdict or settlement in their state or nation are qualified for recognition.

Both Attorney Harmon and Attorney Parker have met this stringent requirement for 2019. Their qualifying verdict was an $13, 550,592 win on behalf of our client.
