Haynes and Boone, LLP Associates Dominique Baldwin, Maseo Brown, Khalil Bryant, and Meica Green have all accepted nominations to join the National Black Lawyers Top 40 Under 40.
“It is a distinct honor and privilege to receive recognition among some of the greatest legal minds in the country, many of whom are personal role models,” Khalil Bryant said. “Receiving this honor motivates me to continue working diligently to improve myself and my community, by building mutually beneficial relationships with fellow NBL members and collaborating to create opportunities for the next generation of Black legal talent.”
The National Black Lawyers was created to celebrate legal excellence by promoting member attorneys as subject-matter experts, developing a strong national network of top African American attorneys, and facilitating the exchange of timely information to enable their members to maintain their status as leaders.
“I have always followed The National Black Lawyers, so it is surreal to be recognized as member of the Top 40 Under 40 Black Lawyers in Texas,” Maseo said. “To be selected alongside such prestigious and inspiring company is incredibly humbling. I cannot wait to work with the NBL to see what opportunities we can create for the next generation of Black attorneys.”
