Eight Kane Russell Coleman Logan Attorneys Honored as 2020 Texas Rising Stars
Super Lawyers has awarded Kane Russell Coleman Logan attorneys with its top recognition for young attorneys this year. From the Houston office, Demetri Economou has been named to the 2020 Texas Rising Stars list. In the KRCL Dallas office, the honorees include Michael Attaway, Caleb Davis, Jaime DeWees, David Fisk, John Kane and Scott Riddle. These attorneys demonstrate the wide-ranging legal services Kane Russell Coleman Logan provides, including corporate, civil litigation, business litigation, bankruptcy and employment law.
The Texas Rising Stars list is created annually by Thomson Reuters’ legal division. The organization invites lawyers in each state to nominate their peers and then narrows the pool of nominees through extensive independent research and evaluation by a blue-ribbon panel of lawyers. This honor is ultimately awarded to only the top 2.5 percent of Texas lawyers who are 40 years old or younger or who have been in practice for 10 years or less.
“At KRCL, we provide an environment where young attorneys can grow and succeed in their careers. We have a truly distinguished pool of young legal talent, and the Texas Rising Stars selection is another good indicator of that fact. These attorneys are incredibly bright and hardworking, and this honor is well-deserved. KRCL is committed to hiring, training and helping advance young lawyers in the Firm as part of our legacy plan, which we have been working on to ensure a smooth succession to new leadership in future years,” said Karen Cox, Managing Director and Chair of the Board.
