Brookman, Rosenberg, Brown & Sandler is thrilled to announce that both Howell K. Rosenberg and Laurence H. Brown have been selected to this year’s Pennsylvania Super Lawyers list. Super Lawyers is a rating service that uses a blue- ribbon panel to evaluate and nominate attorneys in more than 70 practice areas. Independent research analyzes each attorney’s honors and awards, peer recognition and reviews, and career position, among other criteria. Each attorney is featured in a publication of the regions of the honorees and nationwide.
