The Carlson Law Firm is pleased to announce that three of our attorneys have been named as Texas Super Lawyers Rising Stars of 2022. Considering that no more than 2.5% of lawyers in a state are named to the Rising Stars list, this is a distinguished achievement.
To be eligible for the rising star inclusion means that these lawyers are either 40 years old or younger or been in practice for 10 years or less.
A Rising Star is nominated by a peer or identified by the Super Lawyers’ research department during the research process. Candidates are selected based on several indicators of peer recognition and professional achievement. These achievements can include any combination of the following:
- Verdicts/Settlements
- Experience
- Honors
- Awards
- Special licenses
- Certification
- Position within the law firm
- Bar or professional activity
- Scholarly lectures or writings
- And more
These three Carlson Law Firm attorneys have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement on the Rising Stars list:
Savannah Stroud, Partner, is a family law lawyer who has helped families through some of the more difficult moments in their lives.
