New York City personal injury law firm Hach & Rose, LLP announced that five of its attorneys have been selected to the 2026 New York Super Lawyers and Rising Stars lists, peer-reviewed recognitions that identify attorneys who have attained significant professional achievement and peer recognition in their practice areas. The annual lists provide independent validation of the firm's work on behalf of injured New Yorkers, according to a press release.
Three partners were named to the main Super Lawyers list: Mike Rose, co-founder and senior partner; George W. Ilchert, partner; and Joseph Guardino, attorney. Additionally, two attorneys were named to the Rising Stars list, which recognizes up-and-coming practitioners who are either 40 years old or younger, or have been in practice for 10 years or less: John A. Blyth, partner, and Evan Bane, attorney. The selections are determined through a multiphase process that includes independent research, peer nominations, and peer evaluations. Each year, no more than five percent of lawyers in the state are selected for Super Lawyers, and no more than 2.5 percent for Rising Stars.
This recognition highlights Hach & Rose, LLP's ongoing focus on advocating for individuals injured due to negligence, including construction workers, motor vehicle accident victims, and union members. The firm has developed a reputation over nearly 25 years for handling complex personal injury claims across New York State, regularly litigating cases involving traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, and permanent disabilities from work-related incidents, premises liability, and defective products.
By maintaining a structure where multiple attorneys collaborate on high-stakes cases, the firm ensures clients receive dedicated attention and thorough representation, challenging corporations and insurance entities that refuse fair compensation during pre-trial negotiations. The addition of these five individual accolades underscores the collective experience within the firm. For more information, visit Hach & Rose, LLP.
