For the sixth year in a row, attorney Alex Eichhorn has been included on the prestigious Wisconsin Rising Stars list. This recognition continues an unbroken streak that began in 2020 and will continue through 2025, a testament to his continued excellence and growing influence within the legal community in Wisconsin.
The Rising Stars list is a highly selective honor, selected from the long-standing Super Lawyers rankings. It is reserved for only 2.5% of attorneys in Wisconsin who are under the age of 40 or have been practicing for less than 10 years. This recognition signifies that the lawyer is not only one of the most promising in their field, but also regarded as a leader and a champion of exceptional caliber by their peers. Eichhorn’s practice, which focuses on representing injured workers, has consistently been highlighted through this prestigious award.
The selection process is rigorous and multifaceted, designed to identify attorneys who have achieved superior professional success. It starts with peer nominations, where fellow lawyers can nominate individuals who they believe have performed outstanding work. Then, candidates are assessed by an independent team of experts using 12 key indicators of excellence, such as jury awards, settlements, transactions, professional honors, and involvement in bar activities. After that, a peer review phase in each main practice area refines the selection further. This comprehensive approach ensures that only those who have consistently demonstrated dedication to their clients and the highest professional standards will be selected for the list.
Eichhorn’s repeated inclusion in the Rising Stars list is a significant career achievement that goes beyond annual recognition. It demonstrates a pattern of professional growth, consistent success with clients, and respect from both colleagues and competitors. In a highly competitive and demanding field like law, maintaining this level of excellence for half a decade reflects a dedicated approach to practice and focus on delivering meaningful results.
