Four Kollman & Saucier Attorneys Named Maryland “Super Lawyers”

Frank Kollman, Pete Saucier, Darrell VanDeusen, and Eric Paltell have been included in the 2012 Maryland Super Lawyers publication. Frank, Pete and Eric are named as three of the top Employment & Labor attorneys in the state, while Darrell was selected for Employment Litigation Defense. Eric was also named one of the “Top 100” Maryland Lawyers in the survey.

Kollman & Saucier Again Named One of Maryland's Top Law Firms

On June 10, 2011, Chambers and Partners announced that Kollman and Saucier has been ranked as one of the top management-side labor and employment firms in Maryland. This is the eight consecutive year that our attorneys have been honored by Chambers as one of the premier firms in the region.

In the 2011 rankings, Eric Paltell, Darrell Van Deusen, and Frank Kollman were listed as three of the top experts in employment law in Maryland. Additionally, Eric was one of only six lawyers in the state to receive a "Band 1" ranking--the highest rating possible rating from Chambers. According to one client, Eric is “one of the most talented employment lawyers around.”

The Chambers rankings are based on extensive research conducted by Chambers and Partners Legal Publishers, a highly respected English publisher of directories assessing and ranking the world’s leading lawyers. Unlike other publishers that allow firms to purchase a mention or ranking, Chambers’ listings are based solely on outside evaluations of merit. Its researchers investigate law firms and lawyers in each US state through an exhaustive process of interviewing clients and competitors in major areas of business law.
