Reinhart Boerner Van Deuren s.c. proudly announces that 42 of their attorneys have been named Wisconsin "Super Lawyers” and 17 of their attorneys were named "Super Lawyers - Rising Stars."

Wisconsin Super Lawyers identifies the top 5 percent of attorneys in each state as chosen by their peers and through the independent research of Law & Politics through a selection process where every attorney in the state who has been licensed to practice for five years or more is sent a ballot. Attorneys are asked to nominate the best lawyers they have personally observed in action - whether as opposing counsel or co-counsel, or through other first-hand observation in the courtroom. The intent is to discourage lawyers from voting for others based purely on reputation.
