HOUSTON – Mahendru P.C. is being singled out for excellence once again by one of the country’s oldest and most well-regarded peer-review legal guides. The firm has earned a spot on the Best Law Firms list for 2025 by The Best Lawyers in America publication. This marks the fifth consecutive year the Houston-area commercial litigation firm has been chosen for this honor.
This latest accolade comes on the heels of the firm’s founding partner, Ashish Mahendru, being named to the Best Lawyers list for 2025 in the Employment Law – Management category. Mahendru P.C. trial lawyer Darren Braun also earned a place on the Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch list in the Commercial Litigation category. This list is for elite younger attorneys or those attorneys who are within their first few years of practicing law.
“We are a smaller firm, but we put in the work, day in and day out, to operate on par with much larger firms,” said Mr. Mahendru. “I am truly honored that our peers and our competitors recognize the level of our commitment and the positive results that we achieve for our clients.”
While Mahendru’s selection to the 2025 Best Law Firms list is in the category of Employment Law – Management, the firm’s practice expertise is far broader. Mahendru P.C. handles cases for both plaintiffs and defendants in state and federal courts involving business and commercial litigation, contract and partnership disputes, employment litigation, high-stakes commercial contingency, injunctions and temporary restraining orders, as well as non-competes and trade secrets.
Honorees for Best Law Firms must have at least one attorney on the current list of The Best Lawyers in America. That listing includes only about 5% of all practicing attorneys in the United States. The firms under consideration for Best Law Firms undergo a comprehensive series of confidential client evaluations, independent surveys, and peer reviews from top legal professionals within the same areas of practice.
