CHAMBERS USA 2011 HONORS JOSEPH & HOLLANDER, LLC

BOTH LAW FIRM AND ATTORNEYS RANKED AMONG KANSAS' TOP FIRMS AND
COUNSELORS IN LABOR AND EMPLOYMENT, AND GENERAL COMMERCIAL LITIGATION

(WICHITA, Kan.) - Ross Hollander, shareholder and president of the Wichita/Topeka firm of Joseph & Hollander, LLC, was named among Kansas' top tier of labor and employment lawyers by Chambers USA 2011. Chambers USA quotes one client as saying Hollander "is one of the most approachable people I know; he listens well and does an excellent job of representing our interests."

Firm shareholder and partner Stephen M. Joseph was recognized in Chambers USA's General Commercial Litigation section as "a very versatile lawyer with an impressive line in creative strategies," especially in crime and white-collar crime.

Firm associate Michelle Moe was noted by Chambers as an "Associate to Watch," citing her work that "belies her five years of practice" in labor and employment law. Chambers reports Moe provides "almost immediate responses to queries, and advice that demonstrates a clear understanding of the entire situation, not just the law."

Overall, the firm of Joseph & Hollander, LLC was ranked at the top of Kansas' second tier of labor and employment firms. Chambers USA says the firm is "professional, pleasant to work with and delightfully attuned to client needs."

Inclusion in Chambers USA is based on the publication's independent interviews with both clients and lawyers, with greater emphasis given to evaluations by clients. Rankings also reflect pre-eminence in the attorney's key practice area and achievement in the past year.

"What's unique about Chambers USA is that lawyers are ranked based on criteria most valued by clients: technical legal ability, client service, business acumen, diligence, and professional conduct," Hollander said. "Chambers USA really reflects how clients feel about their attorneys. It's an unbiased resource for clients who may be seeking an attorney to represent them."

The Wichita/Topeka offices of Joseph & Hollander, LLC, include 15 lawyers. The firm's primary practice areas include complex criminal defense, civil litigation, employment law, commercial law and family law.
