CHICAGO, February 3, 2017 — Super Lawyers has named 13 attorneys at Cozen O’Connor to its 2017 lists of top practitioners in Illinois. Eleven were recognized as Super Lawyers and two were named "Rising Stars," a list that recognizes attorneys under the age of 40.

In addition, Joe Tilson was again named one of the “Top 100” Illinois Super Lawyers, for the sixth straight year.

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

The Rising Star list includes just 2.5 percent of each state's "up and coming" young attorneys.
