SEPTEMBER 22, 2023 – In the 2023 edition of Super Lawyers and Rising Stars, Thomson Reuters has honored more than 80 Davis Wright Tremaine attorneys across eight offices as industry leaders.

  • Nine attorneys were newly added to the Rising Starts list, nearly all of them from underrepresented populations.
  • Jenna Mooney, an employment partner in Portland, was named to the Super Lawyers Top 50 list and Top 25 Women list in Oregon.
  • Fred Burnside, a financial services partner in Seattle, was named to the Super Lawyers Top 100 list in Washington.
