Super Lawyers Names Natick Resident Damien Powell a 2014 Rising Star

Massachusetts Super Lawyers recognized Natick resident Damien Powell as a “Rising Star” in the field of White Collar Criminal Defense. Damien is a graduate of Suffolk University Law School, and is an attorney in the litigation department at the law firm of Donoghue Barrett & Singal in Boston. Over the course of his eight-year career, Damien has represented individuals and businesses in a wide variety of litigation matters, ranging from government investigations and white-collar criminal defense to complex civil litigation.

Damien’s name was included among the other Rising Stars in this year’s Super Lawyers Magazine, as well as in the November edition of Boston Magazine. Super Lawyers evaluates candidates based on 12 indicators of professional achievement and peer recognition. An expert panel reviews peer nominations and independent research to determine the best lawyers in each state within their respective areas of practice. Qualifying attorneys who are either under the age of 40 or who have been practicing law for fewer than ten years are recognized as Rising Stars. Fewer than 5% of attorneys are selected as Super Lawyers, and fewer than 2.5% receive the Rising Star designation.
