Otteson Shapiro has been recognized in the 2027 edition of Best Law Firms®, earning four national rankings and 13 regional rankings across its Denver and Dallas offices.

 The firm is nationally ranked in both Banking and Finance Law and Litigation – Banking and Finance. That pairing reflects how Otteson Shapiro works with financial institutions: advising on transactions, lending and regulatory matters, and representing clients when disputes arise. National rankings in Financial Services Regulation Law and Commercial Litigation round out that practice. For a firm with two offices, the national results reflect focused experience in financial services across a client base that extends well beyond Colorado and Texas.

 

The firm’s 13 regional rankings are attributed across our Denver and Dallas offices, up from 10 regional rankings last year. In Colorado, the firm was newly ranked in Mergers and Acquisitions Law and Commercial Finance Law. In Dallas/Fort Worth, the firm was newly ranked in Litigation – Banking and Finance, so both offices are now ranked for banking and finance work on the transactional and litigation sides.
