Five Hach & Rose, LLP Attorneys Recognized on 2026 Super Lawyers and Rising Stars Lists

New York City personal injury law firm Hach & Rose, LLP has announced that five of its attorneys have been selected to the peer-reviewed "Super Lawyers" and "Rising Stars" lists for their professional achievements in personal injury litigation. The annual recognitions identify attorneys who have attained significant peer recognition and professional achievement within their specific legal practice areas, providing independent validation of their work on behalf of injured New Yorkers.

Three partners from the firm were named to the main Super Lawyers list: Mike Rose, Co-Founder and Senior Partner; George W. Ilchert, Partner; and Joseph Guardino, Attorney. Additionally, two of the firm's attorneys were named to the Rising Stars list, which recognizes up-and-coming practitioners who are either 40 years old or younger, or have been in practice for 10 years or less: John A. Blyth, Partner; and Evan Bane, Attorney.

The selections are determined through a multiphase process that includes independent research, peer nominations, and peer evaluations. Each year, no more than five percent of the lawyers in the state are selected to receive the Super Lawyers designation, and no more than 2.5 percent are selected to the Rising Stars list. The recognition highlights Hach & Rose, LLP's ongoing focus on advocating for individuals who have been injured due to negligence, including construction workers, motor vehicle accident victims, and union members.

The recognition of these five attorneys reflects the firm's established focus on comprehensive case preparation and trial readiness. Over nearly 25 years of practice, Hach & Rose, LLP has developed a reputation for handling complex personal injury claims across New York State. The firm's legal team regularly litigates cases involving traumatic brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, and permanent disabilities resulting from work-related incidents, premises liability, and defective products.

By maintaining a structure where multiple attorneys collaborate on high-stakes cases, the firm ensures that clients receive dedicated attention and thorough legal representation. This team approach allows the firm to challenge corporations and insurance entities that refuse to offer fair compensation during pre-trial negotiations. The addition of these five individual accolades further underscores the collective experience within the firm's office.
