Northern California Super Lawyers and Rising Stars 2012

Six lawyers from Bryan Cave’s San Francisco offices have been selected for inclusion in Northern California Super Lawyers 2012. 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, independent research and a blue-ribbon panel review.

In addition, three lawyers have been named to the Northern California “Rising Stars” list for 2012. “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 the state were selected.
