DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Randy Johnston and Robert Tobey, shareholders at Johnston Tobey Baruch, have been named for a fifth consecutive year to the Lawdragon 500 Leading Plaintiff Financial Lawyers guide, which honors top attorneys who represent investors, consumers and businesses in high-stakes financial disputes.

Mr. Johnston was recognized for his work in business litigation and legal malpractice, and Mr. Tobey was selected for his results-driven approach to complex commercial cases. Their continued inclusion reflects the firm’s reputation for tackling significant legal challenges across Texas and beyond.

“These are the lawyers who contest ridiculous pay packages on behalf of investors and face the ire of billionaires,” said Katrina Dewey, founder and CEO of Lawdragon. “They challenge business moves that box out competitors.”

Known for stepping into complex, high-risk cases that others pass on, Johnston Tobey Baruch is often called when professional misconduct has left clients with nowhere else to turn and no room for error.

“Our mission has always been simple: When something goes wrong, we help people stand up and take action,” said Mr. Johnston. “Whether they’ve been wronged by a business partner, a professional or a powerful corporation, we give them a path forward.”

Mr. Tobey added, “Being named to this list five years in a row is meaningful. It shows we’re doing the kind of work that truly matters to our clients, and we’re proud to keep showing up for them when it counts.”
