    D. Edward Hays to Appear in Southern California Super Lawyers 2012

    Marshack Hays LLP is pleased to announce that D. Edward Hays has been selected for inclusion in Southern California Super Lawyers 2012.  Recognition in this publication is a well-deserved honor attained by no more than 5% of the lawyers in California.  Super Lawyers magazine is distributed in all 50 states and Washington, D.C., reaching more than 13 million readers.

    Super Lawyers employs a rigorous selection process with standards that culminate in a rating service of outstanding lawyers from more than 70 practice areas—all of whom have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement.  The selection process is multi-phased and includes independent research, peer nominations, and peer evaluations.

    Super Lawyers has recognized Ed for his outstanding work in bankruptcy and creditor/debtor rights, including recent published cases such as In re Dick Cepek, 339 B.R. 730 (9th Cir. BAP 2006); In re Rinard, 451 B.R. 12 (Bankr. C.D. Cal. 2011); and In re Four Star Financial Services, Inc., 444 B.R. 428 (Bankr. C.D. Cal. 2011).

    Super Lawyers magazine is distributed to practitioners and to ABA-accredited law school libraries.  Super Lawyers is also published as a special section in leading city and regional magazines across the country.  You can find Ed’s profile on the Super Lawyers website here.

    We are proud of Ed’s achievement and this distinguished recognition.  Along with our clients and friends, we look forward to a productive and successful 2012—and we’re pleased to see Ed and the firm making such a great start to the year.

    City of Laguna Woods Elevates Cynthia Conners To Mayor Pro Tem

    Laguna Woods City Council

    We are pleased to congratulate Cynthia Conners on her election to the position of Mayor Pro Tem, City of Laguna Woods. She is a busy associate attorney at our firm and brings over twenty-seven years of experience to her practice at Marshack Hays LLP. Her election as Mayor Pro Tem by her fellow Council Members after a relatively short time on the City Council is not surprising given her passion for public service and her commitment to community issues. “I enjoy my work as member of the City Council,” said Ms. Conners, “and we have an excellent City Manager and an excellent staff that allow us to focus primarily on policy and oversight.”

    It is not surprising to the partners at the firm or to her co-workers that Ms. Conners maintains an active law practice while also serving her City. “If you look at her background,” offered Richard Marshack, “you’ll see that she has always had a public service component to go with her professional work. And her successful trial experience and professional background will certainly benefit the City of Laguna Woods just as they benefit our clients.” (more…)
