Franklin, TN, United States - September 7, 2016 /MarketersMedia/ —
Attorney Jonathan Bobbitt of Gilbert Russell McWherter Scott Bobbitt PLC, was recently selection for inclusion in the 23rd edition of Best Lawyers in America for his work in the area of Litigation – Labor and Employment. This is Mr. Bobbitt’s 2nd consecutive year being named to the list.
“I feel incredibly honored to have been selected again. Being selected for Best Lawyers is really extraordinary, because I share this award with some of the finest lawyers I know,” said attorney Jonathan Bobbitt. “At the Gilbert Firm, we all strive to do the best we can for our clients. Whether it’s an employment issue or a policyholder, many of the people I work with come to me in a real state of fear: they fear termination, they fear retaliation, they fear where they will live, they fear how they will earn a living or whether they can protect their family. That’s an awful burden to carry, and I consider it my duty to help them understand their rights as it relates to their employers and insurance carriers. I feel very grateful to be included once again.”
The Gilbert Firm represents employees, insureds and students throughout the state of Tennessee. Mr. Bobbitt is an accomplished civil trial attorney who handles complex employee rights cases involving sexual harassment, retaliation and wrongful termination, as well as insurance disputes.

All nominees are reviewed and evaluated by current Best Lawyers members, who then pass those evaluations along for a final calculation. If the results are high enough, nominees are then vetted to ensure that they are in good standing with local bar association(s). The firm is then notified of the attorney’s selection for inclusion.
