CHICAGO, January 26, 2018 — Super Lawyers has named 12 attorneys at Cozen O’Connor to its 2018 lists of top practitioners in Illinois. Nine were recognized as Super Lawyers and three were named "Rising Stars," a list that recognizes attorneys under the age of 40.

In addition, Joe Tilson was named again one of the “Top 100” Illinois Super Lawyers, for the seventh year in a row.

The Cozen O’Connor attorneys who have been recognized by their peers in Illinois as Super Lawyers include:

Brian Bulger (Employment & Labor), Jack Carriglio (Business Litigation), Janet Davis (Insurance Coverage), Richard Devine (Criminal Defense: White Collar), Christopher Kentra (Business Litigation), Philip King (Insurance Coverage), Joe Tilson (Employment & Labor), Julie Trester (Employment Litigation: Defense) and Anna Wermuth (Employment & Labor).

Super Lawyers represents the top 5 percent of all practicing lawyers in each state. The publishers of Super Lawyers identify preeminent attorneys based on surveys and interviews with thousands of attorneys, plus consideration of civic service and pro bono activities. The Rising Stars list includes just 2.5 percent of each state's "up and coming" young attorneys.
