The New York Law Journal’s Rising Stars project recognizes the region’s most promising lawyers who are no older than 40.

We are looking for lawyers who have wielded influence in their practice areas in New York and beyond. They should be innovators, developing unique practice niches, employing creative uses of technology, amassing robust books of business, demonstrating strong leadership qualities, showing expertise in litigation or transactional work, contributing to the improvement of their institutions, or committing themselves to pro bono, charitable and professional volunteer work.
