R. Brian Shields Named Rising Star

For the third consecutive year, R. Brian Shields has been named a Rising Star by Super Lawyers, a Thomson Reuters publication.

“I am humbled to be named again to the Rising Star List,” Shields said. “It is an honor to be recognized in this way.”

Super Lawyers rates outstanding lawyers who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement in one of seventy practice areas. The rankings, which are released on an annual, state-by-state basis, are determined by a patented multi-phase process that includes a statewide survey of lawyers, an independent research evaluation of candidates and peer reviews by practice area.

According to Super Lawyers, the final published list “represents no more than 5 percent of the lawyers in the state.”
