    Uncategorized Comments Off on Scott Malyk Named “Lawyer of the Year” 2024 for Immigration Law

    Meyner and Landis LLP is pleased to announce that our partner, Scott R. Malyk, has been selected by his peers for inclusion in the 2024 Best Lawyers in America® list. More importantly, Scott was also recognized as “Lawyer of the Year” in the practice area of Immigration Law. The “Lawyer of the Year” recognition is awarded to the individual lawyer with the highest overall peer-reviewed feedback for a specific practice area. Only one lawyer is recognized as the “Lawyer of the Year” for each specialty and regional practice location.

    “I was truly humbled by my selection as ‘Lawyer of the Year’ 2022 and now recognized again for 2024, in Immigration Law,” Malyk says. “I am supported by an incredible and growing team of devoted professionals who comprise the Immigration Law Group of Meyner and Landis. Without their support, I would not have achieved this recognition.”

    Recognition by Best Lawyers® is based entirely on peer review, and its methodology is designed to capture, as accurately as possible, the consensus opinion of leading lawyers about the professional abilities of their colleagues within the same geographical area and legal practice area. Best Lawyers® employs a transparent survey process designed to elicit meaningful and substantive evaluations of the quality of legal services.

    The Best Lawyers in America is published by Best Lawyers®, a private peer review organization, and is not a court specific public certification vehicle. No aspect of this advertisement has been submitted to or approved by the Supreme Court of New Jersey. A description of the selection methodology for Best Lawyers can be found at the Best Lawyers website here.
