Shana Webb Pennywell Named to the 2018 Georgia Super Lawyers Rising Star List

Stearns-Montgomery & Proctor is pleased to announce that Attorney Shana Webb Pennywell has been named a 2018 Georgia Rising Star by Super Lawyers. Only five percent of Georgia lawyers are chosen as Georgia Super Lawyers, and no more than 2.5 percent in the state are recognized as Rising Stars.

Super Lawyers, part of Thomson Reuters, is a research-driven, peer-influenced rating service of outstanding lawyers who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. The objective of Super Lawyers is to create a credible, comprehensive, and diverse listing of exceptional attorneys to be used as a resource for both referring attorneys and consumers seeking legal counsel.

Attorneys chosen come from more than 70 practice areas and all firm sizes, assuring a credible and relevant list each year. The annual selections are made using a patented multiphase process that includes:

  • Peer nominations
  • Independent research by Super Lawyers
  • Evaluations from a highly credentialed panel of attorneys

This selection process evaluates lawyers based upon multiple criteria, including professional achievement and peer recognition; honors and awards; firm and bar involvement and leadership; scholarship and professional writings; community service and pro bono activities; and other outstanding achievements. Rising Stars are top up-and-coming attorneys who are no more than 40 years old or who have been practicing for no more than ten years.
