Nine Plunkett Cooney attorneys, who are earlier in their careers, were recently selected by their peers for inclusion in the 2025 edition of Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch in America™ for outstanding professional excellence.
Ones to Watch honorees typically have been in practice for five to nine years, focusing on one or more of the 77 areas of expertise that are reviewed. The methodology for determining these awards is the same as the one used to select Best Lawyers: a peer-review survey in which lawyers within their own geographic region nominate their peers. These lawyers are not allowed to select nominees from the same area(s) in which they practice, and it is not a fee-based listing.
Below are the Plunkett Cooney attorneys who have received 2025 Best Lawyers “Ones to Watch in America™” recognition:
Plunkett Cooney’s Bloomfield Hills, Michigan Best Lawyers Ones to Watch:
- Arturo Alfaro – Immigration Law and Transportation Law
- Stephanie M. Brochert – Insurance Law

Ones to Watch-awarded lawyers can be recognized for multiple years, but they cannot indefinitely remain on the list. After a candidate has been in practice for 10 or more years, he or she is eligible to be nominated for the traditional Best Lawyers designation.
