DALLAS – Attorney Alexander M. Brauer, a name partner in the Dallas trial and appellate boutique Bailey Brauer PLLC, has been recognized on the 2015 Texas Rising Stars list for his work in litigation matters. This is the sixth consecutive year that Mr. Brauer has been selected by the publishers of Rising Stars, which honors young legal leaders.

To be eligible for the exclusive annual listing, a candidate must be either 40 or younger or in practice for 10 years or less.

• Defeating antitrust and deceptive trade practices claims filed by nearly 200 plaintiffs from Louisiana, Arkansas and Texas in one of the nation’s most challenging venues;
• Successfully resolving claims of an alleged fraudulent investment scheme during a federal jury trial, and;
• Defeating fraud and contract claims alleged against a technology company officer in a complex multi-party dispute stemming from the issuance of preferred stock.
