Four Sommers Schwartz Attorneys Named to Lawdragon 500 X – The Next Generation for 2026
Sommers Schwartz is pleased to announce that Lawdragon selected four of our attorneys – Ethan Goemann, Paulina Kennedy, John Malone III, and Dina Zalewski – for the fourth edition of the 500 X – The Next Generation awards list.
Lawdragon evaluates candidates through nominations and independent journalistic research vetted by peers and adversaries. Regarding the important representation our colleagues and the other lawyers on the 2026 list provide, Lawdragon said:
“The remarkable lawyers featured here chose a path to the law, sacrificed the long hours and investment required to get through law school and the bar and start a career. The sleepless nights, the terror of getting on your feet in court, in a boardroom, putting yourself on the line. When it matters.
There are thousands of lawyers like these in every firm and type of practice in the world. And we applaud this year’s Lawdragon 500 X crew for their own accomplishments and as representatives of the dream of becoming a lawyer. A good lawyer. A great lawyer.
They chose to believe in themselves and the law.”
We are proud to celebrate Sommer Schwartz’s rising legal leaders, whose practices span employment law, wage-and-hour litigation, medical malpractice, wrongful death, and complex civil litigation. Their recognition on the national stage reflects the dedication and advocacy they bring to serving individuals and families.
