Three Smith Duggan Cornell & Gollub Partners Recognized for Excellence in High-Stakes Litigation

Smith Duggan Cornell & Gollub LLP is pleased to announce that three partners have been honored for their professional excellence in complex, high-stakes litigation.

Christopher Duggan and Peter Durney were chosen among “America’s Top 100 Bet-the-Company Litigators®,” which highlights the accomplishments of the nation’s most skilled trial lawyers. To be considered, an attorney must have defended a case in which the fate of a large business was at stake. 

Rodney Gould was also recently named a “Go To Lawyer in Business Litigation” by Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly. He was selected for his expertise and record of success as a trial attorney who can think creatively and identify all options for a client. Due to his exceptional reputation, he routinely receives referrals from other lawyers.

He will be featured with 20 other outstanding business litigation attorneys in a special issue of Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly later this year.

Only the top litigators in each state are chosen among “America’s Top 100 Bet-the-Company Litigators®” following a comprehensive multi-phase selection process. 

Less than one-half percent of active attorneys in the United States receive this honor.

Christopher Duggan specializes in product liability litigation, commercial litigation, constitutional law, and aviation law. Peter Durney primarily handles class action litigation, commercial litigation, and product liability litigation. Rodney Gould focuses on travel and tourism law. 

These three partners are part of Smith Duggan Cornell & Gollub’s Commercial Litigation practice, which is highly rated by the Chambers USA 2024 Guide.
