SBW is pleased to report that our partner Steve Willey has been named a “BTI Client Service All-Star” for 2019.

Unique among those who review or rate legal services, BTI’s appellation relies only on the input of clients, predominantly major companies.  No attorney or firm can self-nominate, self-refer, nor pay to be included in this report, and peers at the bar also have no say.  Clients have the final–and only–say in the identification of those named.  To be included in the BTI report, an All-Star lawyer must be singled out–by name and in an unprompted manner–as delivering the absolute best client service.  Read more about BTI here.

This year, top legal decision-makers and corporate counsel identified just 335 attorneys nationwide as meeting the criteria to be included in the BTI report.  Of those, only 3 practice in the state of Washington, and Steve is the only commercial trial lawyer named for Washington.

Steve Willey was selected for his client service related to contracts and commercial litigation by a Fortune 500 Transportation Company.  This is the second time Steve has been named a BTI Client All-Star.  He was also named to the group in 2015.  This is the 18th year in which BTI has researched and published its list of Client Service All-Stars.
