Becky Laffitte named a Lawyer of the Year in two practice areas by Best Lawyers for 2025
August 29, 2024Becky Lafitte, a member of Robinson Gray law firm, is being honored as Lawyer of the Year by The Best Lawyers in America® in the publication’s 2025 edition.
Not only that, but she received that highest honor in two separate practice areas – Insurance Law and Product Liability Litigation – Defendants.
She is one of 32 at Robinson Gray recognized for 2025. She is one of two to achieve the Lawyer of the Year designation, which is reserved for individuals with the highest overall peer-feedback for a specific practice area and geographic region. Only one lawyer is named “Lawyer of the Year” in each practice area and location. For her, that location is the Columbia area.
In the main Best Lawyers list for 2025, Becky has been recognized as well in three additional practice areas – Litigation – Construction, Personal Injury Litigation – Defendants, and Transportation Law.
Becky’s practice at Robinson Gray also focuses on litigation involving alternative dispute resolution, construction, dram shops, healthcare, premises liability, and commercial transportation and trucking.
Becky received her Juris Doctor from the University of South Carolina School of Law in 1983. She had graduated from Columbia College in 1977, and earned a Master of Arts in Teaching from USC.
In addition to being honored in the past by Best Lawyers in America and Super Lawyers, she has received the Platinum Compleat Lawyer Award, which is awarded to particularly accomplished alumni of the University of South Carolina School of Law.
“This is a most appropriate recognition, because to her clients and her colleagues Becky is a Lawyer of the Year every year,” said Cal Watson, Robinson Gray’s managing member. “We are so proud to work with her.”
Best Lawyers in America, which thousands of lawyers and corporations use annually, is presented as a definitive guide to the legal profession nationally.
The recognition is based on peer review. The process is designed to capture, as accurately as possible, the consensus opinion of leading lawyers about the professional abilities of their colleagues within the same geographical area and legal practice area.
