Mr. Sayles and Mr. Werbner are recognized in the 2011 edition of The Best Lawyers of America based on their work in "bet-the-company" and commercial litigation. Mr. Werbner also earned a spot among the nation's top attorneys for white-collar criminal defense.

This past year, Mr. Sayles helped a unit of Johnson & Johnson win a record-breaking $1.67 billion verdict in an intellectual property trial over patents used to produce a popular arthritis medication.

Soon after Mr. Sayles' victory, Mr. Werbner helped secure a multimillion-dollar verdict for the now-closed law firm of Jenkens & Gilchrist in a breach of contract lawsuit. News reports of the $4.1 million award were included in business and legal publications around the country, including Texas Lawyer newspaper.
