NLJ's Appellate Hot List

The National Law Journal announced its Appellate Hot List for 2010, recognizing firms that, in its estimation, "earned at least one significant appellate win since January 2009 and that could boast an impressive track record overall."

The NLJ chose the following 20 firms "from scores of nominees," though it regretted "that space didn't always allow us to recognize all the firms that contributed to the outcomes."
