Lawdragon Names Two Moore & Van Allen Litigation Members to National and Global Practitioner Guides
Moore & Van Allen PLLC (MVA) is pleased to announce that members John A. Fagg, Jr. and James “Jim” P. McLoughlin, Jr. were selected for Lawdragon’s inaugural 500 Leading Global Antitrust & Competition Lawyers guide and Lawdragon’s long-running 500 Leading Lawyers in America guide, alongside member Valecia M. McDowell.
The 2025 Global Antitrust & Competition Lawyers guide recognizes the global corps of competition and antitrust practitioners handling transactions, administrative and regulatory matters, and litigation. According to Lawdragon, the 2025 honorees “excel in crafting transaction terms that will pass muster with global regulatory bodies,” and “know how to navigate a growing array of worldwide authorities who examine the impact of a deal in hotly contested industries.”
The 2025 Leading Lawyers in America guide is the 20th edition of Lawdragon’s flagship list. Results are based on Lawdragon’s review of a record number of nominations, independent research, and peer and competitor vetting. According to Lawdragon, this year’s guide reflects “the evolution of great lawyering” since Lawdragon’s founding in 2005.
Fagg is co-head of MVA’s Litigation Team and co-head of MVA’s White Collar, Regulatory Defense & Investigations Practice. McLoughlin consistently handles civil, criminal, and regulatory litigation of significant scale and complexity.
Both Fagg and McLoughlin have also been selected for Lawdragon’s 500 Leading Litigators in America list annually since 2023, and were featured in a 2023 Lawdragon Q&A about trends in white collar criminal enforcement.
