Cullen McKinney, an attorney from Detroit, Michigan, is a founding partner at Tanoury, Nauts, Mckinney & Dwaihy (TNMD). Prior to beginning with TNMD, Cullen McKinney was selected to the Super Lawyers’ Rising Star list in 2008.
The Super Lawyers Rising Stars list is comprised of attorneys who are 40 or younger. The selection process for this list is similar to that of attorneys selected to the Super Lawyers list, except Super Lawyers’ Rising Stars comprise 2.5 percent of lawyers practicing in each state. The selection process involves four steps beginning with peer nominations. The organization also accepts informal nominations from marketing directors, clients, readers, and ineligible attorneys. Although nominated lawyers receive no points from these nominations, the names are added to the pool for consideration for formal nomination. After nominations close, the Super Lawyers research staff verifies all of the credentials, professional experience, awards, and other accomplishments. The next step involves assessing each candidate based on 12 measures. These indicators include verdicts/settlements, experience, awards, and scholarly lectures/writings among others. Nominees then undergo a blue ribbon review from top Rising Star nominees within each specialization. These candidates have scored the most points during the first two steps. This involves candidates evaluating peers within their practice, scoring them on a scale of one to five. Finally, the selections are made based on firm size. The list is generated annually and each state has its own list.
