DBR's Most Effective Lawyers 2008

Ok so I was down at the Four Seasons enjoying the festivities this afternoon.

A really nice luncheon, and a nicely put together event.

I'm gonna save the snark for a change and just say congrats to all the finalists and winners:

Appellate Law -- Tom Equels

Bankruptcy -- Damien Marshall, Stuart Singer

Class Action -- Gerry Richman, Manny Garcia-Linares, Gary Betensky

Complex Litigation -- Tom Equels (again!)

Criminal Justice -- Tony Barnes, Steve Carlton, John Kastrenakes

International Law -- Stu Grossman, Seth Miles, John Thornton, Orlando do Campo

Labor -- Ross B. Toyne

Lobbying -- Liz Hernandez, Jess McCarty

Personal Injury -- Michael Andrew Haggard (who brought his client there)

Pro Bono -- Leon Fresco

Product Liability -- David Jagolinzer

Public Interest -- Larry Silverman

Real Estate -- Alan Grunspan

Regulatory -- Alan Greer, Mark Romance

Much thanks to the DBR, Total Bank, Mercedes, and the other sponsors for making this happen.

BTW, when I took that photo I said to myself "how would David Markus photograph this event?" and this is the best I could come up with.

Enjoy.
