A high degree of peer recognition and professional accomplishment is how five GoransonBain family law attorneys have earned inclusion on the 2016 Rising Stars list compiled by Super Lawyers.   P. Lindley Bain, Angel J. Berbarie, Hayley B. Collins, Lene' Alley DeRudder and Kathryn F. Samler are making their repeat appearances on the exclusive annual ranking limited to the top 2.5 percent of lawyers in Texas.

The annual Texas Super Lawyers “Rising Star’s” ranking recognizes the state’s best lawyers under the age of 40 and practicing for no more than 10 years. Lawyers are selected through a competitive process that includes independent research, peer nominations and evaluations. 

A highly regarded list, P. Lindley Bain, a partner who manages the family law firm’s Austin office, has earned the recognition for six straight years.  Board certified in family law, she has also been selected to the 2016 Best Lawyers in America.

Divorce lawyer, Angel J. Berbarie, who recently joined the firm’s Plano office, is Board Certified in Family Law and has achieved the recognition for five years.

Plano family law attorney Lene' Alley DeRudder has earned the Rising Stars recognition for three years and recently was designated as one of the 10 Best Attorneys (in her region) for Client Satisfaction by the American Institute of Family Law Lawyers.
