Clark H. Rucker was recently named the 2026 “Lawyer of the Year” for Energy Law in Dallas/Fort Worth by Best Lawyers. Only one lawyer in each practice area and metropolitan area earns this title, making it a highly prestigious and sought-after honor.
These lawyers are chosen based on their outstanding voting averages from peer review assessments. Earning this designation shows the high respect a lawyer has gained among other top lawyers in the same communities and practice areas for their skills, professionalism, and integrity.
In addition to the “Lawyer of the Year” award, Mr. Rucker was also included in the 2026 edition of The Best Lawyers in America® in the Oil and Gas practice area.
