Four Weld Riley attorneys recognized as Super Lawyers

Weld Riley attorneys Stephen Weld, Fred Morris, William Wallo, and Daneille Strong have been selected by Super Lawyers Magazine as being among the best attorneys in the state in their respective practice areas.

The annual list is determined through a process which involves peer nominations, independent research, and selection by a final review panel. Only 5% of attorneys are selected as “Super Lawyers,” while only 2.5% of attorneys under the age of 40, or with less than 10 years of practice, are selected as “Rising Stars.”

Firm founder Steve Weld has been selected to the Super Lawyers list every year since its inception in 2005 and has been listed among The Best Lawyers in America since 1995. His practice is focused primarily on management labor and employment law.

Fred Morris has been selected to the Super Lawyers list for the first time this year. Fred’s practice focuses on civil litigation insurance defense, and personal injury law.

Bill Wallo has been selected to the Super Lawyers list for the past four years. Bill’s practice focuses on business transactions, commercial litigation, and business bankruptcy, insolvency, and restructuring matters.

Daneille Strong has been selected as a Super Lawyers “Rising Star” for the past three years, as a top-rated attorney in the area of creditor/debtor rights. Daneille’s practice focuses on worker’s compensation defense, creditors’ rights, and collection matters.
