A. Barry Cappello and Leila Noël, partners in the Santa Barbara law firm Cappello & Noël LLP, have been selected to the 2018 Southern California Super Lawyers list. No more than 5 percent of lawyers receive this honor.
Cappello has been named a “super lawyer” every year since 2007. He represents plaintiffs in lender liability matters, complex business litigation, class actions and catastrophic personal injury cases.
Cappello has obtained jury verdicts and negotiated settlements in excess of $1 billion on behalf of his clients, the firm reports.
This is the third year Noël has been named a “super lawyer.” She has tried or co-tried most of the firm’s largest cases, and has obtained jury verdicts in excess of $125 million and negotiated more than $130 million in settlements and workouts, the firm said.
Super Lawyers, a Thomson Reuters business, rates lawyers who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement.
The annual selections are made using a process that includes a survey of lawyers, an independent research evaluation of candidates, and peer reviews by practice area.
