Hoevet Olson, PC attorneys Per C. Olson and Megan McVicar were recently recognized by Best Lawyers® as the 2026 “Lawyer of the Year” — Per Olson for Criminal Defense: White-Collar, and Megan McVicar for Criminal Defense: General Practice.
Only a single lawyer in each practice area and designated metropolitan area is honored as the “Lawyer of the Year,” making this accolade particularly significant. These lawyers are selected based on particularly impressive voting averages received during the peer review assessments.
Receiving this designation reflects the high level of respect a lawyer has earned among other leading lawyers in the same communities and the same practice areas for their abilities, their professionalism and their integrity.
Since it was first published in 1983, Best Lawyers has become universally regarded as the definitive guide to legal excellence.
Per Olson has previously recognized by Best Lawyers as “Lawyer of the Year” in 2023 (White-Collar) and 2024 (General Practice). Ron Hoevet was also recognized as “Lawyer of the Year” in 2012 (General Practice), 2014 (White-Collar), and 2025 (both General Practice and White Collar)
