Attorney Connie Dai and Yun Cheng Recognized as 2025 Massachusetts Super Lawyer and Rising Star

戴晨方律师与承韵律师荣获

2025 年马萨诸塞州超级律师与新星律师称号

Lion’s Law Group is proud to announce that Attorney Connie Dai has been named a 2025 Massachusetts Super Lawyer, and Attorney Yun Cheng has been named a 2025 Massachusetts Rising Star by Super Lawyers.

This marks the second consecutive year that Attorney Dai has been recognized as a Super Lawyer. Previously, she was selected as a Rising Star from 2014 through 2021, and was first named a Super Lawyer in 2024, underscoring her long-standing excellence and leadership in the legal profession.

Attorney Yun Cheng receives his first Rising Star distinction this year — a recognition given to top young attorneys who demonstrate outstanding professional achievement and peer recognition early in their careers.

The Super Lawyers and Rising Stars lists are compiled annually through a rigorous, multi-phase process that includes peer nominations, independent research, and evaluation by a blue-ribbon panel of distinguished attorneys. In each state, no more than 5 % of lawyers are selected as Super Lawyers, and fewer than 2.5 % are named Rising Stars.

“Connie and Yun’s recognitions are a reflection of their hard work, dedication, and exceptional legal skill,” said a representative of Lion’s Law Group. “We are proud to see their commitment to excellence recognized on such a respected platform.”

我们非常高兴地宣布：本所戴晨方律师荣登 2025 年马萨诸塞州超级律师（Super Lawyer）名单，承韵律师荣登 2025 年马萨诸塞州新星律师（Rising Star）名单。两项荣誉均由美国知名法律评选机构 Super Lawyers 授予。

这是戴律师连续第二年获评 Super Lawyer。她曾于 2014 年至 2021 年连续入选 Rising Star 名单，并在 2024 年首次获评 Super Lawyer，充分展现了她在法律行业中的卓越表现与长期领导力。

承韵律师今年首次荣获 Rising Star 称号。该奖项旨在表彰那些在职业生涯早期便展现出卓越专业能力与同行高度认可的青年律师。

Super Lawyers 与 Rising Stars 名单每年均通过严格的多阶段评选程序产生，包括同行提名、独立调研以及由资深律师组成的专家评审团综合评估。每个州仅有不超过 5% 的律师获评 Super Lawyer，而入选 Rising Star 的律师比例更低于 2.5%。

“戴律师与承律师的荣誉，体现了他们的勤勉努力、敬业精神以及卓越的法律专业水平。” “我们为他们在如此具有公信力的平台上获得这一殊荣深感自豪。”
