Hardison & Cochran, a Raleigh-based law firm, announced that three of its attorneys have been listed in the 2027 edition of The Best Lawyers in America. The recognition highlights the firm's ongoing commitment to providing top-tier legal representation in North Carolina.
The honored attorneys include Benjamin T. Cochran, who has been recognized for the 14th consecutive year in Workers' Compensation Law – Claimants; Jack Hardison, now in his second year in the same category; and Rick W. Scott, recognized for the 7th consecutive year in Criminal Defense: General Practice.
“We're proud of this recognition, but our focus remains where it has always been: helping our clients through difficult situations and giving them the best representation we possibly can,” said managing partner Benjamin T. Cochran. “People come to us when they're facing serious problems because of an injury, and those problems can have a real impact on their lives and their families. We take that responsibility seriously, and that commitment to our clients is what drives the work we do every day.”
Best Lawyers is widely regarded as the oldest and most respected lawyer ranking service globally. For 40 years, it has assisted individuals in identifying qualified legal counsel, particularly in unfamiliar jurisdictions or specialties. The rankings are based exclusively on peer review, where nominated lawyers are evaluated by currently recognized Best Lawyers in the same geographic and practice areas. This rigorous process captures the consensus opinion of leading attorneys about their colleagues' professional abilities.
Hardison & Cochran has built a reputation over four decades for advocating on behalf of injured individuals and their families. With headquarters in Raleigh and additional offices in Fayetteville, Greensboro, Wilmington, Greenville, and Dunn, the firm serves clients throughout North Carolina. Its practice areas include workers' compensation, personal injury, auto accident injury, Social Security Disability, and VA Disability law.
The firm's attorneys have consistently earned recognition from Best Lawyers, and the firm itself has been named to Best Law Firms for multiple consecutive years. These accolades reflect the firm's dedication to exceptional client service and advocacy.
