The statewide business magazine conducts voting among Georgia lawyers to make its annual selections to the “Legal Elite,” published in its December issue.

Stillwell practices in commercial real estate, business litigation and bankruptcy/workouts.

Herring represents businesses and management, with a practice that focuses on all aspects of employment problems and issues, including internal employment practices, wage-hour issues, drug testing, sexual harassment, equal employment opportunity, the Americans with Disabilities Act and employee benefits.

Frank S. Macgill serves as the firm’s administrative partner, practicing in trusts and estates, taxation, tax-exempt organizations and corporate law.
