Weinberg, Wheeler, Hudgins, Gunn & Dial, LLC.

Twelve WWHGD Partners Named 2007"Georgia Super Lawyers"
For the fourth year since its inaugural listing, Georgia Super Lawyers has recognized a number of WWHGD attorneys as being among the state's legal elite. Those named to the roll represent the top five percent of Georgia attorneys in more than 60 practice areas. The list of Georgia Super Lawyers is published annually in the March issues of Atlanta magazine and Georgia Super Lawyers, which is mailed to every attorney in the state. Below are the WWHGD attorneys and their respective categories:

* John Bonnie - insurance coverage
* Dave Dial - construction/surety
* John Flynn - construction litigation
* Billy Gunn - civil litigation defense
* Skip Hudgins - civil litigation defense
* David Larson - construction/surety
* Lee Roberts - construction litigation
* Terry Sullivan - personal injury defense: medical malpractice
* Bob Tanner - personal injury defense: medical malpractice
* Ben Weinberg - civil litigation defense
* Sid Wheeler - civil litigation defense
* Kevin Williams - personal injury defense: general

Georgia Super Lawyers were chosen after almost 24,000 lawyers across the state were asked to identify colleagues they had personally observed in action, rather than voting for others based on reputation alone; many precautions were taken to ensure a fair selection process. From researching credentials to keeping track of who voted for whom, officials took extensive steps to produce an accurate list of the state's top attorneys.
