Attorneys Jessica Murray and Adrienne Aikens Obtain 2020 Super Lawyers® Rising Stars Recognition

Our team at Richard Schwartz & Associates Injury Lawyer, P.A. is pleased to announce that Attorneys Jessica Murray and Adrienne Aikens were recognized as Super Lawyers® 2020 Rising Stars! Every year, Super Lawyers® — considered one of the most well-respected legal ranking publications in the United States by many industry professionals — curates the Rising Stars list to showcase the country’s premier early-career attorneys.

Rising Stars Review and Selection Process

In curating Rising Stars, Super Lawyers® reviews each attorney vigorously. Each candidate must be nominated by a third party to qualify for consideration; they may also be considered eligible for review if they are identified as a candidate by the Super Lawyers® research team.

Then, attorneys are evaluated on what Super Lawyers® calls “12 indicators of personal achievement and peer recognition” — experience, special licenses, scholarly lectures, verdicts, and settlements are among the criteria considered. Super Lawyers® indicator scores are given to the highest-scoring candidates that are either under 40 years of age or still within their first 10 years of legal practice.

Only 2.5% of attorneys throughout the nation are recognized in Rising Stars, and it is a huge privilege to gain such recognition.
