Mark Werbner Named One of Dallas’ Top Business Defense Attorneys

June 13, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
DALLAS – Attorney Mark Werbner of Dallas’ Sayles Werbner has earned a spot among the Dallas Business Journal’s “The Defenders” listing of Dallas’ elite defense attorneys.

Mr. Werbner is one of five attorneys profiled in the newspaper’s June 8 special section. To compile the list, Dallas Business Journal reporters interviewed general counsel, judges and attorneys from across the Dallas/Fort Worth area in order to identify the area’s top defense counsel.

“When a company or its executives face a major lawsuit, I try to provide an aggressive defense while minimizing the disruptions often associated with protracted and complex litigation,” says Mr. Werbner. “It is an honor to be included among so many talented and hard-working attorneys.”

Last year, Mr. Werbner solidified his reputation as one of the country’s top defense attorneys by securing a defense win for international businessman Jean-Raymond Boulle in a $200 million breach of contract lawsuit filed by Mr. Boulle’s brother. The case had been pending for eight years before coming to a close following less than two hours of jury deliberations. The Dallas state court jury decided that Mr. Boulle’s brother was not entitled to a portion of the $3.1 billion sale of Diamond Fields Resources Inc, a company formed by Mr. Boulle.

Mr. Werbner routinely is recognized as one of the nation’s top trial lawyers. He has been profiled by The National Law Journal as one of the top litigators in the nation, and named a “Go-To Lawyer” in Plaintiffs’ Civil litigation by Texas Lawyer newspaper. Additionally, he has been named one of the Top 10 attorneys in Texas in Texas Super Lawyer and Texas Monthly magazines, and one of the Best Lawyers in Dallas by D Magazine.

Sayles Werbner has an international reputation as a “go to” trial law firm in multifaceted business litigation, intellectual property, life-altering personal injury cases, product safety lawsuits and other areas of the law. More information about the firm can be found at www.swtriallaw.com.
