June 26, 2025
Winston & Strawn’s Financial Services Industry Group Co-Chair Kobi Kennedy Brinson and Digital Assets Group Co-Chair Daniel Stabile were included on Forbes’ inaugural list of America's Best-In-State Lawyers. This list identifies “the finest in the profession: lawyers with impressive track records in their specialties, leaders in their fields and attorneys most respected by peers and clients.” Kobi was the only attorney featured in the “Government Regulatory” category and Daniel was likewise the only attorney highlighted for “Blockchain & Digital Assets.”
Thousands of attorneys were evaluated for inclusion. To find honorees, Forbes’ research team “conducted in-depth evaluations of each candidate based on a variety of weighted criteria, including: reputation, industry honors, influence on the legal landscape, client list, advocacy performance, practice impact, reviews by peers and clients, credentials and affiliations, thought leadership, pro-bono work, mentorship, and community and/or diversity work. Also assessed were involvement in significant cases, blockbuster verdicts or deals; notable clients or litigation, and volume, variety or type of incoming business. Accolades from state, national and international bar associations, as well as affinity bar groups and other stakeholders and organizations were also evaluated.”
