Russ Pearlman Named as Texas Super Lawyer® Rising Star for Fifth Consecutive Year

Dallas Technology Law Boutique Celebrates Its Of Counsel Attorney's Five-Year Streak in Technology Transactions

DALLAS, TX — Hosch & Morris, PLLC is proud to announce that Of Counsel attorney Russell B. Pearlman has been named a Texas Super Lawyer® Rising Star for the fifth consecutive year, recognized in the practice areas of Technology Transactions, Business/Corporate, and Intellectual Property. The Rising Stars designation is awarded to no more than 2.5% of attorneys in the state — making five consecutive selections an extraordinary achievement that reflects sustained, peer-recognized excellence at the highest levels of the profession.

"Five years in a row is not luck — it is a testament to Russ's exceptional legal mind, his unmatched depth in technology, and his relentless commitment to our clients," said Kate Morris, co-founder of Hosch & Morris. "We are enormously proud to have Russ as our partner and friend.”

A Rising Star Unlike Any Other

What makes Russ Pearlman's Rising Star distinction particularly remarkable is the extraordinary journey that brought him to the law. Before earning his Juris Doctor from SMU Dedman School of Law, Russ built a 25-year career at the highest levels of the technology industry — serving as Chief Technology Officer for Toyota Motor Sales, USA, Senior Vice President and CTO at Merkle, and executive leadership roles at Capgemini, Hitachi Consulting, Deloitte, and Headstorm, among others. He also pursued a master's degree in artificial intelligence, giving him technical fluency that few attorneys anywhere in the country can match.

After decades advising Fortune 500 companies on their most complex technology challenges, Russ made the rare and deliberate choice to add the law to his arsenal — joining Hosch & Morris as Of Counsel and Chief Technology Officer. The result is a legal counselor who doesn't simply read technology contracts: he has written them, lived them, and built the systems they govern.

What the Rising Star Designation Means

Super Lawyers is a patented, peer-driven and research-based rating service that identifies the top attorneys across more than 70 practice areas. The Rising Stars list recognizes attorneys who are either 40 years old or younger, or who have been in practice for 10 years or fewer — and who have achieved a level of excellence and peer recognition that places them among the very best in their field. Selection is based on peer nominations, independent research, and peer evaluations. Only 2.5% of attorneys in Texas earn the designation in any given year.

To earn it five years running is a distinction that speaks for itself.
