KTK ATTORNEYS RECOGNIZED AS 2019 SUPER LAWYERS
KTK attorneys Stephen J. Torline, Michael T. Crabb, and Benjamin T. Friesen have each been recognized as Super Lawyers for their high level of achievement throughout 2019. Torline was selected to the 2019 Missouri & Kansas Super Lawyers annual list. Crabb and Friesen were chosen as 2019 Missouri & Kansas Rising Stars.
First published in 1991, Super Lawyers is a nationwide publication which distinguishes attorneys in each state who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. The selection of each “Super Lawyer” is the product of a patented four-step process:
The final result of this process is a list of exceptional attorneys, totaling no more than 5% of lawyers in the region. Using an almost identical selection process, the “Rising Star” selection requires two exceptions: first, a candidate must be either 40 years old or younger, or in practice for 10 years or less; and second, while up to 5% of the lawyers in a state are named to Super Lawyers, no more than 2.5% are named to Rising Stars.
This year marks Stephen Torline’s tenth consecutive recognition (2010-2019); Michael Crabb’s seventh consecutive recognition (2013-2019); and Benjamin Friesen’s third consecutive recognition (2017-2019). Congratulations to Steve, Mike and Ben on achieving this honor!
