Seyfarth’s Daniel Sternthal Receives Board Certification in Health Law from the Texas Board of Legal Specialization

Daniel Sternthal, Co-Chair of Seyfarth Shaw’s Health Law Group, received Board Certification in Health Law from the Texas Board of Legal Specialization (TBLS). 

Board Certification is a voluntary designation program certifying Texas attorneys in 22 specific areas of law. Board Certified attorneys must be licensed for at least five years, devote a required percentage of practice to a specialty area for at least three years, attend continuing education seminars, pass an evaluation by fellow lawyers and judges and pass a six hour written examination.

“An attorney has to do something extra to get certified and then they have to continue to work and acquire knowledge in their specialty area to remain certified.  You could say it is a life-long commitment,” said Hal Moorman, Chairman of the TBLS Board of Directors.

Texas Board of Legal Specialization (TBLS) is authorized by the Supreme Court of Texas. It certifies attorney in 22 specific areas of law and paralegals in six specific areas. TBLS serves as a resource by listing all certified attorneys and paralegals on their online database. TBLS works to ensure that the citizens of Texas receive the highest quality legal services.
