SWMW Law, one of the top plaintiffs law firms in the country focused on representing victims of mesothelioma and other asbestos-related diseases, is proud to announce three of the firm’s attorneys have been recognized in the 2025 edition of Missouri & Kansas Super Lawyers and Rising Stars.
Member Ben Schmickle and Partner Michael Brockland were both named 2025 Super Lawyers, while Associate Emma Sikora Paulus was named a 2025 Rising Star.
Selection to the Super Lawyers list is limited to attorneys who demonstrate exceptional peer recognition and professional achievement, representing approximately the top 5-percent of eligible attorneys in Missouri and Kansas.
The Rising Stars list identifies those attorneys who are either 40-years-old or younger or in practice for 10 years or less, representing no more than 2.5-percent of eligible attorneys across Missouri and Kansas. The selection process includes independent research, peer nominations, and peer evaluations.
“It is a true honor for our firm to have three attorneys named to the Super Lawyers 2025 list,” said Member Steve Wohlford. “This recognition speaks to the depth of experience, professionalism, and commitment to excellence that defines our firm. We are proud to see our attorneys recognized among the best in the profession, and even more proud of the integrity and care they bring to their work every day.”
