Brittany Sukiennik Featured as a 2026 Energy Rising Star by Law360

August 26, 2026

On August 24, 2026, Cravath partner Brittany L. Sukiennik was featured as part of Law360’s 2026 “Rising Stars” series as one of the top Energy attorneys in the nation under the age of 40. The related profile highlights Brittany’s work for clients including PG&E and Xcel Energy in sprawling and complex wildfire‑related litigation.

Brittany, whose broad commercial litigation practice has led her to represent a host of companies across diverse industries, reflected on her pride in achieving successful recent outcomes for energy industry clients and described how working with her colleagues helps motivate her: “My partners and my team, they push me to think harder, to argue better and really to never settle for the easy answer, to keep digging until we’ve really crossed all of our t’s and dotted our I’s. I think there’s just a really great energy that comes from being surrounded by people who are kind of the best at getting it right. I think that just makes the work better every single time.”
