Minnesota Lawyer is pleased to announce the 2016 Up & Coming Attorneys and Unsung Legal Heroes. The up and coming lawyers have been in practice for 10 years or fewer; the unsung legal heroes are support staff, marketers, educators and others who do the work of getting the lawyers prepared and out the door. They will all be lauded at a luncheon on Thursday, Sept. 8, at the Hyatt Regency in Minneapolis.
Congratulations to all the award recipients.
