Our Attorney Aims High and Achieves Big

As if one award-winning attorney isn’t enough, we are thrilled to share that Super Lawyers recognized our associate attorney, Gabe Perez, as a top-rated immigration attorney for their 2020 Texas Rising Stars list! Attorney Gabe Perez practices immigration law, bankruptcy law, general civil and commercial litigation, and assists in our firm’s criminal law branch. It’s fair to say he is extremely well-rounded and immensely talented. We are lucky to have Gabe on our team!

Significance of Super Lawyers’ 2020 Rising Stars List

The Rising Stars list includes a maximum 2.5% of attorneys in each state, all of whom must be either 40 years old or younger or in practice for 10 years or less. The Rising Stars selection process is the same as the Super Lawyers process, with the exception of age and years of practice. While up to five percent of lawyers in each state are selected to the Super Lawyers list, half of that percentage are named to the Rising Stars list, which emphasizes how selective and exclusive this accolade is. There are about 90,000 active attorneys in Texas, so to see our associate attorney be recognized as a Rising Star speaks volumes about his work.

As a brief overview of the process:

  • It begins with nominations and the candidate pool creation
  • Then Super Lawyers conducts independent research based on 12 indicators of peer recognition and professional achievement
  • Names undergo a peer evaluation by practice area, or a “blue ribbon review”
  • Step four is the final selection of Super Lawyers, and those who don’t make the list but meet either one of the Rising Stars criteria will go through the Rising Stars selection process
