Super Lawyers has selected Saveri Law Firm partners Joseph Saveri and Cadio Zirpoli as "Super Lawyers" and “Top 100 Northern California Super Lawyers," and partners Diane Rice (San Francisco), Ronnie S. Spiegel (Washington state), and Michael Buchman (New York) as “Super Lawyers” for inclusion in its annual attorney rankings. Partner Christopher Young and associates Itak Moradi, Holden Benon, and William Castillo Guardado were chosen for inclusion as “Rising Stars.”
Joe has been included in Super Lawyers selections every year since 2006. He was previously named to the “Top 100 Northern California Super Lawyers” in 2015-2016 and 2019-2025.
Cadio has been included in Super Lawyers in 2010 and every year since 2014. This is his ninth consecutive year being named one of the “Top 100 Northern California Super Lawyers.” Ronnie was selected as a Washington State “Super Lawyer” for the fourth year in a row. Diane has been a Super Lawyer every year since 2019 and Michael since 2014. David received his debut “Super Lawyer” selection after being a “Rising Star” for the previous three years.
In the “Rising Star” category, Itak was selected for the seventh consecutive year, Chris for the sixth consecutive year, and Holden for the second time, with William earning his debut inclusion.
Only 5% of attorneys are selected as “Super Lawyers.” The “Rising Stars” list recognizes no more than 2.5 percent of attorneys in each state. To be eligible for inclusion, a candidate must be either 40 years old or younger, or in practice for 10 years or less.
Super Lawyers, part of Thomson Reuters, is a rating service of outstanding lawyers from more than 70 practice areas who have attained a high degree of peer recognition, professional achievement, and excellence. The selection process includes independent research, peer nominations, and peer evaluations.
Super Lawyers magazine features the list and profiles of selected attorneys, and is distributed to attorneys in the state or region and ABA-accredited law school libraries. Super Lawyers is also published as a special section in leading city and regional magazines across the country. Lawyers are selected to a Super Lawyers list in all 50 states and Washington, D.C.
