Marc Elias Named to Forbes’ List of America’s Top Lawyers for Third Consecutive Year

WASHINGTON, D.C. – This month, Forbes named Elias Law Group founder and Firm Chair Marc Elias to its 2026 list of America’s Top Lawyers, marking the third consecutive year Elias has been recognized. Elias has been named to every edition of the list since its debut in 2024.

The 2026 America’s Top Lawyers list recognizes what Forbes calls “the leading dealmakers, litigators, advisers and strategists—at firms of all sizes—who stand apart in an extraordinarily competitive field […] those who are defining modern legal excellence.”

Honorees were selected through a rigorous, multi-stage editorial research process in which thousands of candidates were evaluated on a variety of weighted criteria, including reputation, influence on the legal landscape, advocacy performance, peer and client reviews, and involvement in significant cases, with emphasis on recent accomplishments.

Elias is the only election law specialist named to this year’s list.
