Truck accident lawyer Marion Munley has been included in the “Top 10” Pennsylvania Super Lawyers list, the “Top 100” and the “Top 50” Women Pennsylvania Super Lawyers lists in the 2026 edition of Pennsylvania Super Lawyers.
Only 5% of attorneys in the United States are selected to Super Lawyers. To be included in Super Lawyers, attorneys must be nominated by their peers or identified by the Super Lawyers research department. Lawyers cannot nominate themselves, nor can they pay to be recognized on the list. Nominated attorneys are subjected to a thorough evaluation and selection process. The top 10 are the candidates with the highest total points from this process.
This is the fourth year in a row that Munley has been featured in the Top 10. She is the only female attorney who made the list in 2026. She has been consistently selected to the list of Pennsylvania Super Lawyers for the past 23 years and has been named to the “Top 100” Pennsylvania Super Lawyers list since 2022. This is her 12th year of being named a “Top 50” Women Pennsylvania Super Lawyer.
Munley is widely recognized as one of the most prominent and respected personal injury lawyers in Pennsylvania. She has won many multimillion-dollar settlements and verdicts for injury clients throughout the United States, including one of the largest truck accident settlements in history. She is triple board certified by the National Board of Trial Advocacy in Civil Trial Law, Civil Practice Advocacy and Truck Accident Law.
A leader in the legal community, she is an active member of the American Association for Justice and currently serves as its vice president. She was the first woman to become chair of AAJ Trucking Litigation and is a past chair of the AAJ Women Trial Lawyers Caucus. She is a member of the American Board of Trial Advocates, the International Society of Barristers and the Summit Council, and formerly served as president of the Melvin M. Belli Society. A graduate of Temple University School of Law, Munley received her undergraduate degree from the University of Scranton.
In addition, Munley has been selected to the 2026 “Lawdragon Hall of Fame” and “Lawdragon 500 Leading Consumer Lawyers” list.
The Lawdragon Hall of Fame recognizes lawyers for their long and impactful careers, considering their contributions, leadership and relationships over decades. This process involves extensive tracking and evaluation beyond just recent achievements.
In terms of who is named to the Lawdragon 500 list, according to the publishers, “these are the remarkable lawyers who have etched careers that changed lives and commerce for decades. They remain the nation’s top … litigators and are permanent members of ‘the Lawdragon 500 Leading Lawyers in America.’”
