Charlotte Attorney Corey Parton Named to Super Lawyers Rising Stars 2026
Corey Parton, Founder and Managing Partner of Parton Law, has been selected to the 2026 Super Lawyers® Rising Stars list, marking his ninth consecutive year earning this distinction. In North Carolina, fewer than 2.5% of eligible attorneys receive this recognition annually.
What Is the Super Lawyers Rising Stars List?
Super Lawyers is an attorney rating organization that evaluates lawyers through a multi-phase selection process. The Rising Stars list recognizes attorneys who are either 40 years old or younger, or who have been in practice for 10 years or less.
How Are Rising Stars Selected?
According to the Super Lawyers website, the Rising Star selection process includes:
- Peer nominations from licensed attorneys throughout North Carolina
- Independent research assessing candidates across multiple indicators of professional achievement, including experience, honors, representative matters, and disciplinary history
- Peer evaluations conducted by practice area, involving attorneys with significant credentials and experience
Why Nine Consecutive Years Matters
Earning a single Super Lawyers Rising Stars nomination is meaningful. Earning it nine years in a row signals something different: consistent, sustained excellence recognized repeatedly by peers across the North Carolina legal community.
“This recognition is meaningful to me because it is peer-driven, and I value the trust and respect it signifies from fellow North Carolina attorneys and law firms.” – Corey Parton
