Jackson Walker is pleased to announce the selection of 51 attorneys to Thomson Reuters’ 2022 “Super Lawyers – Rising Stars” list.
Each year, Super Lawyers recognizes only 2.5% of Texas attorneys who either are 40 years of age or younger or have been in practice for 10 years or less as “Rising Stars.” To be selected for inclusion, candidates are nominated by peers within and outside the Firm and are evaluated on 12 indicators of peer recognition and professional achievement, including experience, results for their clients, representative clients, honors and awards, special licenses and certifications, their position with the law firm, bar and professional activity, pro bono and community service, scholarly lectures and writings, and their education and employment background. After the patented selection process is complete, results are validated by a third-party organization, resulting in a credible, comprehensive, and diverse listing of outstanding attorneys. For more information, visit the Super Lawyers website.
The Firm proudly congratulates the 51 attorneys listed below who were recognized, organized by office and including the first year they were rated as “Rising Stars.” Notably, this year’s list includes seven Jackson Walker attorneys who were named among the 100 highest-rated “Texas Rising Stars,” with one honoree recognized among the list of the top 50 highest-rated women.
