Southern California Super Lawyers has recognized twelve Loeb & Loeb attorneys as 2012 “Rising Stars.” “Rising Stars” are top, up-and-coming attorneys who are either 40 years of age or under, or who have been practicing law for 10 or fewer years. Each year, no more than 2.5 percent of the lawyers in the state receive this honor.

Loeb & Loeb’s 2012 “Rising Stars” for the Southern California region include: Christopher Campbell (Tax), Jon Daryanani (Employment & Labor), David Grossman (Business Litigation, Intellectual Property Litigation), Melanie Howard (Intellectual Property), Marissa Hurwitz (Employment & Labor), Arash Khalili (Business/Corporate, Entertainment & Sports), Donald Miller ( Business Litigation, Intellectual Property Litigation), Alyse Pelavin (Estate Planning & Probate), Paul Rohrer (Real Estate, Land Use/Zoning), Erin Smith (Employment & Labor), Lawrence Venick (Securities & Corporate Finance), and Gabrielle Vidal (Estate & Trust Litigation).

The selections for this list are made by the research team at Super Lawyers, an affiliate of Thomson Reuters. The rigorous multi-phase selection process includes a statewide survey of lawyers, independent evaluation of candidates by the attorney-led research staff, and a peer review.
