DLA Piper is pleased to announce that Law360 has named Brooke Kim and Evan Parness to its 2018 list of Rising Star attorneys. This year, 168 attorneys under the age of 40 were chosen for their legal accomplishments that "transcend their age" from more than 1,200 submissions.

In its recognition of Kim, a Litigation partner in the firm's San Diego office, Law360 noted her "numerous victories" and "major wins" in prominent product liability cases.

Parness, an Employment partner in the firm's New York office, was noted for his successes in a "variety of complex employment disputes" – including recently persuading an "Eleventh Circuit panel to wipe out an injunction blocking a former executive for a national health care company from joining a competitor."

Kim and Parness are both active in pro bono matters, and have a shared commitment to support their communities.
