Super Lawyers
The annual Super Lawyers lists, published by Thomson Reuters, are a comprehensive and diverse guide to outstanding attorneys from a wide range of practice areas, firm sizes, and geographic regions. Attorneys from this list have obtained the highest degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. They are the top five percent of attorneys in each state, chosen by their peers and through independent research.
Our attorneys have been selected for expertise in the practice areas of antitrust, aviation, civil and human rights, class action, consumer protection, defective products, employment, environmental and toxic torts, personal injury, and securities fraud litigation.
