MADISON, WI (January 4, 2010) — The national magazine Super Lawyers has selected Dennis P. Birke, for inclusion in the January issue of Super Lawyers, Corporate Counsel Edition, for his work in Environmental Litigation.  Only five percent of the lawyers in the state are named by Super Lawyers.

Selection for Wisconsin Super Lawyers involves peer nominations, a panel-review process, and independent research.  Nominations from lawyers in other law firms carried more weight than nominations from lawyers in the same law firm.   Each candidate’s record was reviewed to assure good standing with the Wisconsin Supreme Court.

Law & Politics publishes Super Lawyers magazines across the country. In 2009, Super Lawyers will reach more than 13 million readers. All Super Lawyers are listed on the web site http://www.superlawyers.com
