All Five Greene & Phillips Partners Named to The Best Lawyers in America© 2027
The Best Lawyers in America® is a peer-review honor based entirely on the judgment of other attorneys, through what Best Lawyers calls its Purely Peer Review® process. Attorneys practicing in the same field and region rate one another confidentially, including opposing counsel, and Best Lawyers compiles the results into its annual list. Only about 5% of U.S. lawyers are selected in any given year, according to Best Lawyers’ published methodology. Below is what each Greene & Phillips partner was recognized for in the 2027 edition.
| Attorney | Recognized Practice Area(s) |
|---|---|
| J. David Greene | Workers’ Compensation Law – Claimants |
| Will G. Phillips | Workers’ Compensation Law – Claimants |
| Britt V. Bethea | Personal Injury Litigation – Plaintiffs Workers’ Compensation Law – Claimants |
| Stephen M. Collins | Personal Injury Litigation – Plaintiffs Workers’ Compensation Law – Claimants |
| Charles J. Barber | Personal Injury Litigation – Plaintiffs Product Liability Litigation – Plaintiffs Workers’ Compensation Law – Claimants |
These recognitions are for attorneys who represent injured people and injured workers (“plaintiffs” in personal injury cases, “claimants” in workers’ compensation cases), not the insurance companies or employers on the other side.
David Greene and Will Phillips, who founded the firm together in 1998, were both recognized in Workers’ Compensation Law – Claimants. Britt Bethea and Stephen Collins were each recognized in two practice areas: Personal Injury Litigation – Plaintiffs and Workers’ Compensation Law – Claimants. Charles “Chase” Barber, the firm’s newest partner, picked up the broadest recognition of the group: Personal Injury Litigation – Plaintiffs, Product Liability Litigation – Plaintiffs, and Workers’ Compensation Law – Claimants.
