Paul J. Singerman has been honored by The Best Lawyers in America© as the 2021 Real Estate “Lawyer of the Year” in Cleveland. Paul was previously named the Real Estate “Lawyer of the Year” in Cleveland in 2019 and has been recognized by Best Lawyers™, the peer-reviewed publication, every year since 2007.

Only a single lawyer in each practice area and designated metropolitan area is honored as the “Lawyer of the Year,” making this accolade particularly significant. These lawyers are selected based on particularly impressive voting averages received during the peer review assessments. Receiving this designation reflects the high level of respect a lawyer has earned among other leading lawyers in the same communities and the same practice areas for their abilities, their professionalism, and their integrity. 

Paul is honored to receive such an award and will continue to provide only the best counsel to his clients. This is the fourth time in recent years that a Singerman, Mills, Desberg & Kauntz Co., L.P.A. attorney has received a “Lawyer of the Year” in Cleveland distinction.

Gary S. Desberg was the Cleveland “Lawyer of the Year” in the practice area of real estate in 2015, and Ronald J. Teplitzky was the Cleveland “Lawyer of the Year” in the practice area of Banking and Finance that same year.
