Huge congratulations to Brynne Gant of Gant Law for being given the Rising Star award by Super Lawyers. Every year Super Lawyers recognizes select attorneys from law firms around the entire United States. Only 2.5% of attorneys are given this recognition. To be recognized as a Rising Star there is a formal selection process to ensure that only the best are given this recognition.

Step 1: First, the candidate must be nominated by a peer or independently identified through the Super Lawyers research department.

Step 2: Super Lawyers’ researched department does an in-depth evaluation on each candidate based on 12 indicators.

• Verdicts/Settlements

• Transactions

• Representative Clients

• Experience

• Honors/Awards

• Special licenses/certifications

• Position within the law firm

• Bar and/or professional activity

• Pro bono and community service

• Scholarly lectures/writings

• Education/employment background

• Other outstanding achievements

Step 3: The candidates in each practice area with the highest point totals from steps one and two are asked to serve on the blue-ribbon panel. Those panelists are then provided a list of candidates from their practice areas to review, rating them on a scale of one to five.

Step 4: Candidates are grouped into four firm size categories. Those with the highest point total from each category are selected and given the Rising Star Award.
