Deborah J. Williamson, founder and managing attorney of Williamson Health Law, has been selected for The Best Lawyers in America© 2025 for her work in health care law.

Williamson Health Law is also pleased to announce that The Best Lawyers in America© has additionally recognized Ms. Williamson as one of the 2025 “Lawyer of the Year” award recipients. She received this accolade for her work in Health Care Law in Detroit. Only a single lawyer in each practice area and community is honored with a “Lawyer of the Year” award.  Honorees receive Lawyer of the Year based on extremely high overall feedback for their professional excellence by their peers in the legal industry. 

Selection for The Best Lawyers in America© award denotes legal excellence in the specific practice area.  Since it was first published in 1983, Best Lawyers has become universally regarded as the definitive guide to legal excellence. Because Best Lawyers is based on an exhaustive peer-review survey in which more than 50,000 leading attorneys cast votes on the legal abilities of other lawyers in their practice areas, and because lawyers are not required or allowed to pay a fee to be listed, inclusion in Best Lawyers is considered a singular honor.
