CHICAGO, Jan. 18 /PRNewswire/ -- Brinks Hofer Gilson & Lione, one of the largest intellectual property law firms in the United States, is pleased to announce that 21 of its attorneys have been named "Illinois Super Lawyers" for 2008 in a survey conducted by Law & Politics magazine. Additionally, 11 Brinks attorneys have been designated "Rising Stars" in Illinois.
