2018 MCCA Rainmakers
MCCA’s Annual List of Rainmakers proves that the profession has talented diverse attorneys who also have valuable client development skills. MCCA honors attorneys from across the nation who have achieved success through innovative, consistent and proactive business development. Their success stories offer insight and value to attorneys at every career stage.
MCCA is proud to announce its 2018 Rainmakers; 11 exceptional diverse attorneys whose business acumen, passion and dedication to proactive client development has set them apart as leaders in the legal profession. MCCA congratulates the 2018 Rainmakers and celebrates the diversity of their race and ethnicities, gender, sexual orientation, and generational differences, as well as the diversity in their practice areas and career paths. MCCA chose the 11 Rainmakers out of a large nomination pool of prominent attorneys who have a proven record (i.e., several years) of compiling books of business exceeding $5 million annually and have contributed significantly to their communities.
The 2018 MCCA Rainmakers were honored at our Global TEC (G-TEC) Forum luncheon in Austin on April 13, 2018, and featured in the 2018 Summer issue of Diversity & the Bar®magazine.
