Winston & Strawn Associates Joey Blake, Brandi Pikes, Stephanie Turner, Drew Washington, and Janelle Li-A-Ping have been named to The National Black Lawyers' Top 40 Under 40. The list recognized 40 African American attorneys from each state who are under the age of 40 and have an outstanding reputation among their peers, the judiciary, and the public.
The NBL Top 40 Under 40 are selected after a rigorous nomination and vetting process. First, NBL members nominate their peers for the selection process. Then, nominees must meet several criteria to move forward, including having notable achievements, settlements, and verdicts as a lawyer, as well as leadership and membership in other national and state specialty lawyer organizations.
