For the third consecutive year, Dallas attorney Jeff Rasansky
has been named a Texas Super Lawyer by the publishers of Law & Politics
magazine and Texas Monthly magazine.
Mr. Rasansky is listed as one of the state’s top personal
injury attorneys in the October issue of Texas Monthly magazine
and Texas Super Lawyers magazine, a publication co-produced by
the publishers of Texas Monthly and Law & Politics Media Inc.
To compile the list, more than 70,000 attorneys across Texas
were asked to nominate the best of their peers based on first-hand
knowledge. Rigorous screening by a blue ribbon panel representing
more than 50 practice areas, and confirmation that the lawyers’ credentials
met the criteria put forth by the Super Lawyers’ Research
Department followed. The final list of Texas Super Lawyers is made
up of less than five percent of all Texas lawyers.
"No one practices law to win awards," says Mr. Rasansky. "But
this recognition came from nominations made by other attorneys.
To receive an honor that shows I have earned the respect of my
fellow lawyers is truly rewarding.
Mr. Rasansky adds this honor to his growing list of awards. Chosen
by D Magazine in 2002 and 2004 as one of Dallas’ “Best
Lawyers Under 40,” he also was named in the magazine as one
of “The Best Lawyers in Dallas” in 2003. In 2001, Texas
Lawyer newspaper named Mr. Rasansky to their “40 Under 40” list
of the top young lawyers in the state.
After earning his law degree from the Southern Methodist University
School of Law in 1990, Mr. Rasansky joined a downtown Dallas firm
where he learned the legal tactics used by large insurance companies,
hospitals and nursing homes. In 1994, he formed the Rasansky Law
Firm. Since then, his firm exclusively has represented individuals
in cases involving medical malpractice, nursing home neglect, products
liability, overtime pay, and serious vehicle accidents.
