This year is turning out to be a great one for Mahendru P.C. as evidenced by its recognition in the nation’s top legal guides and legal industry publications. The firm is pleased to announce that founding partner Ashish Mahendru has once again been named to the Lawdragon 500 list of the leading defense litigators in America for excellence in commercial litigation. This comes on the heels of Mr. Mahendru also earning a spot on the most recent Lawdragon 500 Leading Civil Rights & Plaintiff Employment Lawyers listing.
Lawdragon describes the attorneys on this year’s Leading Litigators list as “outstanding advocates” who “… have changed the course of industry and individual businesses, shaped our nation and the enforcement of its laws, and continued to uphold the role of the law as a beacon and shared imperative.”
In addition to earning selections to multiple Lawdragon “best of” lists, Mr. Mahendru and Mahendru P.C. trial lawyer Darren Braun have each earned repeat placements on elite legal listings including The Best Lawyers in America and Texas Super Lawyers.
“We pride ourselves in successfully handling cases for both plaintiffs and defendants, so we appreciate being recognized by Lawdragon in so many different categories,” said Mr. Mahendru. “We also want to thank our peers in the legal profession for consistently recommending our firm for these awards.”
Lawdragon determines the attorneys for its various legal listings based on a comprehensive selection process which takes multiple factors into account. Among those factors: case outcomes, verdict and settlement values, and surveys from peers and clients. For the complete Lawdragon 500 Leading Litigators in America list for 2026, click here.
