McCathern, Shokouhi, Evans is proud to announce that Managing Director and Partner Arnold Shokouhi, Family Law Partner Laura Roach, and Dallas Partner Stephanie M. Almeter have been recognized in D Magazine’s 2025 Best Lawyers list. This exclusive list honors the top attorneys in Dallas, as selected by their peers.
To compile the list, D Magazine invites lawyers with active Texas Bar numbers in the Dallas area to nominate “members of the legal community representing the people and institutions of Dallas with mastery and drive.” Nominations are then reviewed and validated by a confidential panel of distinguished local attorneys before the final list is published.
Arnold Shokouhi is recognized for the sixth year in the categories of Business & Commercial Litigation and Banking & Finance. He was also included in the 2025 list of Top 500 Most Powerful and Influential Business Leaders in North Texas by D CEO.
Laura Roach earns this honor for the eleventh time in Family Law, reflecting her outstanding reputation and leadership of our Family Law practice in Frisco, TX. Known for her skill in handling complex family matters with compassion and integrity, Laura has helped establish the firm as a trusted name in North Texas family law.
Stephanie M. Almeter joins the Best Lawyers list for the first time, following eight consecutive years of being named a D Magazine Best Lawyer Under 40. She is recognized for her excellence in Business & Commercial Litigation and Labor & Employment Law, continuing to demonstrate strong leadership within the firm and the broader Dallas-Fort Worth legal community.
