Thomas G. Cannon, who is of-counsel to the law firm of O’Neil Cannon, was recently honored as a “2010 Leader in the Law” by the Wisconsin Law Journal. The award has been given annually, since 2003, to attorneys who “have a significant impact on the practice of law in Wisconsin.” Tom has been affiliated with the firm since 1984, and is richly deserving of this prestigious award.

Tom is the second attorney of the firm to have received this award. In 2005 Dean P. Laing, the Chair of the Litigation Group, was honored as a “2005 Leader in the Law.”
