We are proud to announce that Hadsell Stormer Renick & Dai, LLP has once again been recognized as a “Tier 1” Law Firm by U.S. News – Best Lawyers®, a distinction reserved for firms that demonstrate the highest level of professional excellence, in the areas of Litigation-Labor and Employment and Employment Law-Individuals.
Congratulations to the following six partners on their inclusion in the 2026 edition of the Best Lawyers in America®, which honors only those attorneys recognized by their peers as the very best in their fields:
- Cornelia Dai
- Barbara Enloe Hadsell
- Brian Olney
- Randy Renick
- Morgan Ricketts
- Dan Stormer
And congratulations to partner Hanna Chandoo for her inclusion in the 2026 edition of the Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch® in America, highlighting emerging leaders in their practice areas who have quickly distinguished themselves through outstanding work and dedication.
Cornelia Dai, Randy Renick, and Dan Stormer were previously named “Lawyer of the Year,” a rare distinction awarded to only one lawyer per specialty in each region, underscoring their exceptional skill and influence in civil rights and employment law.
These honors are highly selective. Being named a Tier 1 firm reflects collective excellence across a practice; being named a Best Lawyer signals peer recognition as a top practitioner nationally; and being named to the Ones to Watch list highlights rising stars who are already making a significant impact. Together, these accolades affirm HSRD’s leadership, reputation, and unparalleled commitment to justice.
For decades, HSRD has been at the forefront of civil rights and employment law, securing precedent-setting victories, groundbreaking injunctions, and significant recoveries on behalf of those mistreated in communities throughout California and beyond. Our firm’s work has shaped the law, empowered individuals, and held powerful institutions accountable.
We congratulate our attorneys on this well-deserved recognition and thank them for continuing HSRD’s tradition of fighting for equality, dignity, and justice.
