More than 100 Bradley Attorneys Selected to the 2014 Alabama Super Lawyers or Rising Stars Lists

Bradley is pleased to announce that 74 of the firm’s attorneys have been selected to the 2014 Alabama Super Lawyers list, while 32 additional attorneys have earned recognition on the 2014 Alabama Super Lawyers Rising Stars list.

In addition, five attorneys were named to specific lists within this year’s ranking. Birmingham attorneys T. Michael Brown, Matthew H. Lembke, and Kevin C. Newsom were named to the Top 50: Alabama Super Lawyers list; while L. Susan Doss (Birmingham) and Kimberly B. Martin (Huntsville) were named to the Top 25: Women Alabama Super Lawyers list.

Super Lawyers annually ranks attorneys who have attained a significant level of peer recognition and professional achievement. In each state or designated region, only the top five percent of lawyers are named to the Super Lawyers lists, while no more than 2.5 percent are selected to the Rising Stars lists. Identified as up-and-coming in their practice areas, attorneys listed on the Rising Stars list must be 40 years old or younger or have been in practice for 10 or fewer years. Encompassing more than 70 practice areas, the multiphase selection process includes independent research, peer nominations, and peer evaluations. The Alabama Super Lawyers and Rising Stars lists will be published in the May 2014 issues of Alabama Super Lawyers Magazine and Business Alabama Magazine.

“We congratulate our attorneys who have been recognized as among Alabama’s most accomplished and top up-and-coming lawyers in their respective practice areas,” said Firm Chairman Beau Grenier. “We are gratified to see that so many of our lawyers are highly respected by peers and clients.”
