Ohio Super Lawyers magazine recently named real estate and finance attorney David L. Van Slyke from Plunkett Cooney, one of the Midwest’s oldest and largest law firms, to its 2016 list of “Rising Stars.”

The designation is based on nominations by Ohio attorneys, validation of candidates by a third-party independent party and peer evaluation by practice area conducted by panelists from Thomson Reuters, which publishes Ohio Super Lawyers magazine. Those named to the list represent only five percent of the state’s licensed practitioners.

A partner in the firm’s Columbus, Ohio office, Van Slyke focuses his practice in the areas of tort and litigation, title insurance litigation and banking and finance law. He represents a wide range of clients, including mortgage-brokers/originators, real property owners, national title insurance companies, commercial and national lenders.

Admitted to practice in state and federal courts in Ohio and in Kentucky, Van Slyke is a member of the Columbus, Ohio State, Kentucky and American bar associations. He earned his law degree, magna cum laude, from Cleveland-Marshall College of Law in 2004 and his undergraduate degree, magna cum laude, from Baldwin-Wallace College in 2001.

Super Lawyers is a rating service of outstanding lawyers from more than 70 practice areas who have attained a high-degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. The selection process includes independent research, peer nominations and peer evaluations.
