This includes six lawyers who have been selected for 23 years in a row: Pamela E. Berman, Russell F. Conn, Thomas J. Gallitano, Erin K. Higgins, James B. Peloquin, and Carol A. Starkey. Their extraordinary leadership and impeccable example have fostered the excellence of those who follow in their footsteps.
