Five lawyers, one firm, one Lawyer of the Year. Not a bad year in Boise.
November 5, 2026
The votes are in, and this result doesn’t need a recount. 🗳️
Duke Evett has been named to Best Law Firms® 2027, and our attorneys earned some individual honors too:
🏆 Keely E. Duke: 2027 Best Lawyers® Lawyer of the Year, Personal Injury Litigation – Defendants, Boise
⭐ Joshua S. Evett, Best Lawyers® 2027
⭐ Christina M. Hesse, Best Lawyers® 2027
⭐ Emma C. Nowacki, Best Lawyers® 2027
⭐ Molly E. Mitchell, Best Lawyers® 2027
Only one lawyer per practice area in each community gets Lawyer of the Year. So yes, Keely is officially the one. (We already knew. Now it’s in writing.)
Best Lawyers recognition comes from peer review. That means these votes were cast by the people who see our team at work, across the table and in the courtroom. That’s the vote we care about most.
Congratulations to our incredible team, and thank you to the clients and colleagues who make this work worth doing. 🎉
