Two Dinse attorneys recognized as litigation stars in Benchmark Litigation 2016

We are pleased to announce that Ritchie E. Berger and Karen McAndrew are featured in Benchmark Litigation 2016 as Litigation Stars for their outstanding work in litigation. The results of Benchmark Litigation stem from the culmination of a six-month research period where researchers conduct extensive interviews with litigators and their clients to identify the leading litigators and firms. During these interviews, researchers examine recent casework handled by law firms and ask individual litigators to offer their professional opinions on peers.

Mr. Berger is head of the Litigation Section of the firm and is considered one of Vermont’s premier trial lawyers.  He concentrates on the defense of complex civil litigation throughout Vermont and New England. He is a Fellow and Regent of the American College of Trial Lawyers, and a member of the American Board of Trial Advocates, Past-President of Vermont Chapter.

Ms. McAndrew is one of Vermont’s leading trial lawyers.   She headed the firm’s litigation practice for many years, and was named a Fellow of the American College of Trial Lawyers in 1997.  She has successfully tried many complex civil cases in state and federal courts, and handled numerous appeals in the Vermont Supreme Court and the Second Circuit Court of Appeals.  She has a particular concentration in higher education law.
