We invite law firms, colleagues and members of Hawai‘i’s legal community to submit nominations for attorneys who are building strong careers and helping shape the future of the profession. Past Emerging Legal Stars honorees have distinguished themselves not only through early career success, but also through service to clients, leadership within their firms and meaningful contributions to the community.

Please submit each nominee separately. Nominees should be actively practicing attorneys in Hawai‘i who are making significant progress in their careers and contributing positively to their communities.
