Pryor Cashman is pleased to announce that 55 of its attorneys have been selected by the rating service, Super Lawyers, for inclusion in its 2013 Super Lawyers - New York Metro ranking. Forty-four attorneys were selected as New York Super Lawyers and another 11 ranked among New York’s Rising Stars—attorneys who are 40 years old or younger, or in practice for 10 years or less. Both lists recognize lawyers for their outstanding professional achievement.

In addition, among those recognized, three partners were singled out for having the highest point totals in the nomination, research and blue-ribbon review process. Brad D. Rose, chair of the Intellectual Property Group, was named to the Super Lawyers "Top 100" list, while chair of the Immigration Law Practice, Colleen L. Caden, and co-chair of the Family Law Practice, Judith L. Poller, earned spots on the "Top 50" list of female lawyers in New York.

Through a combination of peer nominations and independent research, Super Lawyers vets their lists to recognize outstanding attorneys in more than 70 practice areas. Super Lawyers selects no more than five percent of the lawyers in New York to the Super Lawyers list and no more than 2.5 percent to the Rising Stars list. The lists were recently published in the annual Super Lawyers^© Magazine—Metro edition.
