Our Up & Coming Lawyers are rising stars in the legal community — Massachusetts attorneys who have been members of the bar for 10 years or less, but who have already distinguished themselves in some manner and appear poised for even greater accomplishments. Our honorees for Excellence in Diversity were chosen for their commitment to diversity, whether through helping a law firm to develop a more inclusive culture or advocating for the legal rights of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people. We have added a new category this year, and the firms and individuals chosen as our honorees for Excellence in Pro Bono are all terrific role models for their work in giving back to the community. In addition, we are honoring the often unsung heroes who make sure our offices run smoothly and the trains run on time with our Excellence in Firm Administration, Marketing and Operations awards. The honorees for Judicial Excellence and Excellence in Legal Journalism, chosen by our partner in this event, the Massachusetts Bar Association, are also featured in this section. This year, the MBA is honoring Chief Judge Mark L. Wolf and Boston Globe columnist Kevin Cullen. The pages that follow hopefully offer some intriguing insights into the individuals selected for their contributions this year. Please join me in congratulating all our honorees. Susan A.
