Three Nave Law Attorneys Named Super Lawyers Rising Stars for 2025

Nave Law Firm is proud to announce that three of its attorneys have been recognized by Super Lawyers as Rising Stars for 2025 — a distinction awarded to only 2.5% of attorneys in each state who demonstrate exceptional skill, professionalism, and dedication to their clients.

Congratulations to:
Dennis J. Nave – Criminal Defense: DUI/DWI
Justin M. Lange – Criminal Defense: DUI/DWI
Brady J. O’Malley – Personal Injury General: Plaintiff

This recognition reflects what defines Nave Law at its core — attorneys who fight hard, lead with integrity, and deliver for the people who trust them most.

Nave Law is home to the only Rising Star in Central New York and one of just two in Albany recognized for DWI defense, as well as one of only five attorneys in Syracuse honored for Personal Injury. These achievements underscore the firm’s statewide impact and its commitment to raising the standard for advocacy and client service across New York.

At Nave Law, we believe the best marketing a law firm can have isn’t an ad — it’s elite legal work and an exceptional client experience.

What It Means to Be a Rising Star

The Rising Stars list, part of the Super Lawyers selection process, highlights attorneys who have made a strong impression early in their careers through proven results and peer recognition. The process includes:

  • Peer Nominations – Attorneys nominate colleagues whose work they’ve personally observed.

  • Independent Research – Candidates are evaluated across 12 indicators of professional achievement and peer recognition.

  • Peer Evaluation – Finalists are reviewed by top attorneys in their field to ensure only the best are honored.

Being named a Rising Star isn’t just about early success — it’s about consistency, leadership, and a reputation built on trust and results.
