Rising Stars in Law: Bryan Cecil

Class of 2022

Bryan Cecil is a leader in Hansen Reynolds LLC’s Milwaukee office through his thoughtful legal analysis and strong team approach to litigation, said Toby Reynolds, managing firm partner.

Cecil has been recognized as “One to Watch” in Commercial Litigation, Construction Law and Intellectual Property Law by The Best Lawyers in America publication and as a “Rising Star” in Business Litigation by Wisconsin Super Lawyers. 

Most recently, Cecil took the lead in responding to a complex contractual indemnification claim that went through multiple rounds of briefing and appeals. His oral advocacy at a summary judgment hearing on the indemnification demand, coupled with his briefing, resulted in a victory for a large Wisconsin corporate client at both the trial and appellate level, Reynolds said.

Cecil was recently certified by the state Public Defender’s Office to take appointments for felony defendants. He volunteered to assist with the office’s overwhelming number of cases.
