The recognition of six Cain Law attorneys by Super Lawyers for 2025 underscores the firm's sustained legal excellence and its substantial influence on personal injury litigation in Oklahoma. This annual recognition from the national rating service highlights attorneys who have demonstrated exceptional peer recognition and professional achievement through a rigorous selection process.
Three senior attorneys received Super Lawyers designation, which honors the top 5% of attorneys in each state. Founding attorney Monty Cain earned his sixth consecutive recognition since 2019, while Drew Schwartz received his second successive year on the list. Michael Mosca also joined the Super Lawyers roster for 2025. The firm's emerging talent was equally recognized, with Anthony Alfonso, Rilee Harrison, and Parker Leland selected as Rising Stars, a distinction reserved for the top 2.5% of early-career attorneys. Both Alfonso and Harrison marked their second consecutive year receiving this honor.
Monty Cain emphasized the significance of these recognitions, stating that they reflect the firm's commitment to client-centered representation. "Each person on our team pushes to be the best, because our clients deserve nothing less," Cain noted. "Being named among the Super Lawyers is an honor that reflects the heart and hard work our firm puts into every case."
The Super Lawyers selection process employs a patented methodology that combines peer nominations with independent research, ensuring that only the most accomplished attorneys receive recognition. This rigorous evaluation examines criteria including verdicts and settlements, transactions, representative clients, experience, honors and awards, and bar activity.
These recognitions carry substantial importance for clients seeking legal representation in complex personal injury matters. The Super Lawyers designation serves as an independent validation of attorney quality, helping consumers identify highly qualified legal counsel. For Cain Law specifically, these honors reinforce the firm's position as a leader in personal injury litigation, particularly in cases involving traumatic brain injuries, trucking accidents, and product liability.
The firm's impact extends beyond individual client representation to shaping legal precedent in Oklahoma. Cain Law has been instrumental in developing trucking litigation standards throughout the state, achieving appellate victories that expanded negligent-entrustment claims against unsafe commercial carriers. With over $250 million recovered in verdicts and settlements for Oklahoma clients, the firm's recognized expertise directly benefits individuals navigating complex injury claims.
For the legal industry, these recognitions highlight the importance of peer-reviewed quality assessment in maintaining professional standards. The consistent recognition of multiple Cain Law attorneys across both senior and emerging talent categories demonstrates the firm's commitment to excellence at all career stages. This matters to potential clients because it provides objective evidence of attorney capability during what is often one of the most challenging periods of their lives.
The broader implication of such recognitions lies in their role in maintaining quality standards within the legal profession. By identifying and honoring attorneys who demonstrate exceptional competence and ethical standards, Super Lawyers helps elevate the entire profession while providing valuable guidance to consumers making critical decisions about legal representation.
