Lawdragon Names Pierce & O’Neill Attorneys Among Nation’s Top Litigators

Four firm attorneys earn repeat recognition for commercial litigation excellence

HOUSTON–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Four attorneys with trial and appellate boutique Pierce & O’Neill have again been recognized among the nation’s top litigators by the Lawdragon 500 Leading Litigators in America listing.

Among the repeat honorees are name partners Jesse Pierce and Jack O’Neill, who focus on complex commercial disputes, environmental litigation, oil and gas matters and appellate law. Both were recently recognized by the prestigious Chambers USA guide, including Band 1 rankings – the highest honor – for Mr. Pierce’s oil and gas litigation practice.

“We are grateful to be recognized among the nation’s top litigators and that our work has been acknowledged within the industry,” said Mr. O’Neill.

Earning a second appearance to the legal guide is trial lawyer Mary Pace Livingstone, who was also honored for commercial litigation. She represents clients in claims involving breach of fiduciary duty, breach of contract, fraud, and in oil and gas matters.

Also listed for the second consecutive year is commercial litigator John Schwambach. Mr. Schwambach focuses on complex civil matters in both state and federal courts and was recently recognized by The Best Lawyers in America for his admiralty and maritime work.

The 2024 edition lists the country’s top litigation attorneys. Honorees were selected based on the company’s vetting process, which includes journalistic research and peer submissions.

“These lawyers win hundreds of millions, billions even. They win rights, or lose them. They win freedom, or lose it for someone,” Lawdragon says of those selected. “They have the abilities to change businesses and entire industries. It’s an audacious thing a trial lawyer does: to tell a judge, jury or other arbiter, ‘Hear me. Believe me. Rule for my client.’”
