Illinois Super Lawyers 2010

Seven lawyers in Bryan Cave’s Chicago office have been named to the 2010 edition of Illinois Super Lawyers. Super Lawyers lists the top 5 percent of attorneys in a state or region who have attained a high level of recognition and professional achievement. Honorees are identified through peer surveys, a “blue-ribbon panel” review and independent research of Law & Politics magazine.

In addition, two lawyers were selected as Rising Stars. Rising Stars are chosen by their peers as being among the top up-and-coming lawyers (40 years old or younger, or in practice 10 years or less). Only 2.5 percent of the lawyers in Illinois were selected.
