BatesCarey LLP is pleased to announce that twelve of its attorneys have been selected for inclusion in the 2016 Illinois Super Lawyers and Illinois Rising Stars lists.

Super Lawyers, a Thomson Reuters business, is a rating service of outstanding lawyers from more than 70 practice areas who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. The annual selections are made using a patented multiphase process that includes a statewide survey of lawyers, an independent research evaluation of candidates and peer reviews by practice area. The result is a credible, comprehensive, and diverse listing of exceptional attorneys. Each year, no more than five percent of lawyers in Illinois are selected as Super Lawyers, and no more than 2.5 percent of lawyers in Illinois are selected as Rising Stars.

Congratulations to the BatesCarey lawyers who made this year's lists:
