Ryan S. Zavodnick, a partner at Zavodnick & Lasky Personal Injury Lawyers in Philadelphia, has been recognized in the 2027 edition of The Best Lawyers in America for his work in Workers' Compensation Law - Claimants. This marks the fourth consecutive year he has received this honor, having first been included in 2024. The results were released publicly on August 20, 2026.
The Best Lawyers in America selection process is based entirely on peer review. Each lawyer under consideration is nominated by someone other than the attorney themselves, and lawyers already recognized in the same practice area and region complete confidential evaluations. There is no fee to be nominated or included, and self-nomination is not part of the process. The 2027 edition marks the 33rd year of The Best Lawyers in America, and it includes 81,620 lawyers across 151 practice areas and 203 metropolitan and geographic areas, representing roughly the top 5 percent of practicing attorneys in the United States. Best Lawyers reported that the edition drew on 3.8 million evaluations submitted by more than 32,000 voting lawyers and described it as the most selective edition in the award's history.
Workers' Compensation Law - Claimants covers attorneys who represent injured workers rather than employers or insurers. In Philadelphia, that work runs through the state workers' compensation system, where a claim can turn on medical evidence, wage records, and deadlines that arrive early in a case. Zavodnick represents injured workers in Pennsylvania workers' compensation claims and also handles motor vehicle collisions, slip and fall cases, and product liability matters. He earned his law degree from Temple University Beasley School of Law in 2003 and a bachelor's degree from Pennsylvania State University in 2000. He is admitted to practice in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware.
This recognition is significant not only for Zavodnick but also for the firm, which has built a reputation for advocating on behalf of injured workers. The firm's workers' compensation practice serves clients across Philadelphia and the surrounding counties. Zavodnick & Lasky Personal Injury Lawyers began as a family practice founded by Howard and Sandra Zavodnick and is now led by their son, Ryan Zavodnick, and son-in-law, Todd Lasky. The firm represents people hurt in car, truck, motorcycle, bicycle, pedestrian, and rideshare collisions, along with workers injured on the job. Its office is at 123 S Broad St #1220 in Philadelphia.
Being named to Best Lawyers is a testament to Zavodnick's legal acumen and dedication to his clients. For more information about the firm and its practice areas, visit https://zavodnicklaw.com.
