Four Womble Bond Dickinson attorneys have been nominated by their peers and selected for North Carolina Lawyers Weekly's inaugural Legal 250, a new list recognizing the state's go-to legal leaders across 40 practice areas. The honorees represent a small fraction of the more than 30,000 attorneys licensed in North Carolina - and, as members of the list's first-ever class, they're among the first lawyers in the state to receive the distinction.

The 2026 Legal 250 honorees are:

• Kyle Agee (Taxation)
• Scott Anderson (Business Litigation)
• Beth Tyner Jones (Employment)
• Carl King (Trusts and Estates)

Legal 250 honorees are nominated by members of North Carolina's legal community, with no limit on the number of nominations a lawyer can receive; final selections are made by the North Carolina Lawyers Weekly editorial team. NC Lawyers Weekly has served as a trusted source of legal news for the state's legal community since 1988.
