Columbia Attorney, Bruce Plaxen, Named to 2008 Super Lawyers in Maryland

Columbia, Maryland (Lexis Nexis) May 23, 2008 -- Bruce Plaxen, founding partner of the Columbia-based law firm Plaxen & Adler (http://www.plaxenadler.com), has been named by Super Lawyers magazine as one of the top attorneys in Maryland for 2008. Only five percent of the lawyers in the state are recognized by Super Lawyers.

The selections for Super Lawyers are made by Law & Politics, a division of Key Professional Media, Inc. of Minneapolis, Minn. Each year, Law & Politics undertakes a rigorous multi-phase selection process that includes a statewide survey of lawyers, independent evaluation of candidates by Law & Politics' attorney-led research staff, a peer review of candidates by practice area, and a good-standing and disciplinary check.

Mr. Plaxen's recognition comes on the heels of being given the Maryland Trial Lawyers Association's (MTLA) prestigious "President's Award" (http://plaxenadler.com/in-the-news-Presidents.jsp) for 2007. Mr. Plaxen, a former president of the MTLA, was honored by his peers for his extraordinary volunteer efforts, advocating for consumer rights and access to the civil justice system for all citizens of Maryland.

"I'm gratified by these professional awards, but in the 23 years since I started this firm, my focus every single day has been on how I can best represent the interests of ordinary citizens against the largest and most powerful organizations in our country," said Mr. Plaxen (http://plaxenadler.com/attyBiog.jsp?x=1261223&y=1261219&z=1055053). "We will continue to do our best to help provide access to justice for victims of automobile accidents, products liability, workplace injuries, medical malpractice and other types of personal injury."

Plaxen & Adler is well-regarded throughout the state for court victories such as the largest slip and fall (http://plaxenadler.com/maryland-slip-and-fall-injuries.jsp) verdict in Howard County history and the largest wrongful birth verdict in the history of Montgomery County. The firm has also prevailed in products liability cases against some of the biggest manufacturers in the country.
