(Dallas) - Lynn Tillotson & Pinker, LLP, name partners Mike Lynn, Jeff Tillotson and Eric Pinker recently were named three of Texas’ Super Lawyers by the publishers of Law & Politics Magazine.

Law & Politics Media surveyed more than 70,000 attorneys to compile the list, which is published in the November issue of Texas Monthly.

Mike Lynn and Eric Pinker were recognized for their excellence in Business Litigation, and Jeff Tillotson was recognized in the Civil Litigation Defense category.
