Lance Cawthon Recognized for Real Estate Litigation Expertise in 2026 Best Lawyers in America

Cawthon Law PLLC founder Lance Cawthon has earned a spot in the 2026 edition of The Best Lawyers in America, based on nominations from other attorneys who singled him out for recognition in real estate litigation. 

Business executives, government officials, and other professionals have relied on the annual Best Lawyers guide to the country’s top lawyers since 1983. In addition to nominations, Best Lawyers’ multi-tiered selection process includes a confidential peer review survey and additional analysis conducted by the publication’s editors.

“I am honored to be included in Best Lawyers,” said Mr. Cawthon. “The main reason for my ranking can be found in the great clients who call on me to protect their property interests.”

Mr. Cawthon handles all types of cases involving the sale and purchase of residential and commercial properties. This work includes disputes over eve-of-closing changes of heart, seller misrepresentations, concealment, and other fraudulent acts that result in financial losses, as well as conflicts over restrictive covenants.

In addition to the Best Lawyers honors, Cawthon Law was recognized earlier this year in the 2025 Chambers Spotlight for the firm’s work in commercial litigation. Published by London-based Chambers and Partners, the Spotlight guide is reserved for leading small- and mid-sized law firms that offer a “credible alternative to big law.”

Cawthon Law offers affordable, high-quality legal representation to clients in litigation involving business, real estate, and governmental matters.
