Hoye also has received Best Lawyers’ 2026 Edition “Lawyer of the Year” Award. She was recognized in Philadelphia in the practice area of labor law – union.

The attorneys were recognized for their work in the practice areas of union labor law, employee benefits (ERISA) law, employment law – individuals, labor and employment law, labor and employment litigation, family law, and workers’ compensation law – claimants.
Since it was first published in 1983, Best Lawyers has become highly regarded as the definitive guide to legal excellence. Best Lawyers is based on detailed peer-review surveys, in which tens of thousands of leading attorneys vote on the legal abilities of other lawyers in their practice areas. Since lawyers are neither required nor allowed to pay a fee to be listed, inclusion in Best Lawyers is considered a singular honor.
