The law firm of McLane Middleton, Professional Association is pleased to announce that, for the second year in a row, Benchmark Litigation has recognized attorney Steven J. Dutton as a leading litigation attorney age 40 or under in its annual 40 & Under Hot List.

These attorneys, though young, have established themselves in their respective fields and are set to enjoy bright futures.
