Foley Hoag's Young Lawyers 'Rising' To The Top

Boston, MA - June 14, 2005

Known for its adherence to excellence in lawyering, Foley Hoag LLP's longstanding tradition of recruiting the best legal minds is evidenced in the 2005 edition of SUPER LAWYERS' MASSACHUSETTS RISING STARS: A COMPREHENSIVE LISTING OF THE BEST YOUNG LAWYERS IN MASSACHUSETTS.

The Rising Stars were nominated by the Massachusetts Super Lawyers, who were asked to vote for the best up-and-coming lawyers whom they had observed in action. The top scorers from each firm size were then selected, consisting of the top 2.5 percent of the up-and-coming attorneys in Massachusetts.

"The firm has focused on aggressively growing its blue chip practices while remaining true to our historic commitment to hiring high-standard practitioners. The naming of 38 as Rising Stars in our leading edge practices is a testament to the success of our endeavors," commented Co-Managing Partner Michele A. Whitham.
