Rusing
has also been listed, for the second consecutive year, in Best
Lawyers in America, in the category of Commercial Litigation.
Rusing
recognized by Benchmark as one of Arizona’s "local
litigation stars." The other
Arizona litigators making the list are Peter Baird (Lewis and Roca),
Gary Birnbaum (Mariscal Weeks), Paul Eckstein and Joseph Mais
(Perkins Coie Brown & Bain), William Maledon (Osborn Maledon) and
Don Martin (Quarles & Brady). All practice in Phoenix.
Benchmark cited Rusing’s success on behalf of both plaintiffs –
including his $10 million judgment for Research Corporation – and
defendants such as Brush Wellman. He was praised for being an "effective
advocate who doesn’t fabricate a story and then try to sell it."
