50 Trenam Kemker Attorneys Named Among Florida Super Lawyers

Trenam Kemker is pleased to announce that 33 of its attorneys have been recognized as Super Lawyers for 2014. In addition, 17 attorneys have been recognized by the publication as “Rising Stars,” up-and-comers under the age of 40. Only five percent of the lawyers in the state are named by Super Lawyers, and no more than two-and-a-half percent of the lawyers in the state are Rising Stars. At Trenam Kemker, the 50 attorneys that are included in Florida Super Lawyers account for more than half of the firm’s total attorney count.

 

Among those listed as Super Lawyers, two attorneys earned additional distinctions. Robbie Colton was listed among the Top 10 Lawyers in Florida, Top 50 Women Lawyers in Florida, Top 50 Lawyers in Tampa Bay and Top 100 Lawyers in Florida. John Vento also earned spots on the Top 50 Lawyers in Tampa Bay and the Top 100 Lawyers in Florida lists.
