Cunningham Bounds Attorney, Stephen C. Olen, Named “Lawyer of the Year”
Mr. Olen graduated from Princeton University in 1976 and received his Juris Doctorate summa cum laude from Cumberland School of Law of Samford University in 1979. His practice focuses on complex litigation, business litigation, class actions and bankruptcy litigation. He has been lead counsel in numerous multi-million dollar verdicts and settlements.
Mr. Olen has been listed in The Best Lawyers in America® since 1999, and was named the "Mobile Bet-the-Company Litigator of the Year" for 2010.
After more than a quarter of a century in publication, Best Lawyers is designating “Lawyers of the Year” in high-profile legal specialties in large legal communities. Only a single lawyer in each specialty in each community is being honored as the “Lawyer of the Year.”
Best Lawyers compiles its lists of outstanding attorneys by conducting exhaustive peer-review surveys in which thousands of leading lawyers confidentially evaluate their professional peers. The current, 18th edition of The Best Lawyers in America (2012) is based on more than 3.9 million detailed evaluations of lawyers by other lawyers.
The lawyers being honored as “Lawyers of the Year” have received particularly high ratings in our surveys by earning a high level of respect among their peers for their abilities, professionalism, and integrity.
Steven Naifeh, President of Best Lawyers, says, “We continue to believe – as we have believed for more than 25 years – that recognition by one’s peers is the most meaningful form of praise in the legal profession. We would like to congratulate Stephen C. Olen on being selected as the ‘Mobile Best Lawyers Litigation - Banking & Finance Lawyer of the Year’ for 2012.”
