Two Steinberg Law Firm Attorneys Named in the 2020 South Carolina Rising Stars List

Every year, the attorney rating service, Super Lawyers, releases the names of the brightest young lawyers in its list of Rising Stars. This year Steinberg Law Firm is proud to announce that two of the firm’s younger attorneys have been named in the 2020 South Carolina Rising Stars list.

To become a Rising Star, an attorney must go through a rigorous referral and vetting process. Only those lawyers who have been practicing less than 10 years, or are younger than 40, are eligible.

First, young attorneys are recommended by fellow lawyers who are familiar with the nominee’s skill and commitment to their clients. Once nominated, Super Lawyers conducts an independent 12-point evaluation of each attorney. Among other factors, Super Lawyers considers a nominee’s recent verdicts and settlements, honors and awards, pro bono and community service, and other outstanding achievements. Nominees then undergo a peer-review process in which other attorneys in the nominee’s practice area evaluate the candidates. In all, just 2.5 percent of all attorneys are named Super Lawyers.
