Brown Fox is pleased to announce that D Magazine has named Partners Brandi McKay and Brian Robison as 2025 Best Lawyers in Dallas. D Magazine annually asks licensed attorneys to nominate peers who they believe are the best lawyers in Dallas. The list is then vetted by a panel of local lawyers before going before the magazine’s editors. This is the third year in a row D Magazine has honored McKay and the second year in a row the publication has recognized Robison.
