Cantor Grana Buckner Bucci is proud to announce that partner Stephanie E. Grana has been inducted as a Fellow of the American College of Trial Lawyers (ACTL), one of the most respected professional organizations for trial lawyers in North America.
Stephanie was formally inducted on October 11, 2025, during the College’s Annual Meeting in Washington, D.C., before an audience of nearly 950 attendees. This recognition is one of the highest honors in the legal profession, reflecting her exceptional skill, integrity, and dedication to justice. Although there are currently more than 5,500 Fellows across the U.S. and Canada, membership can never be more than 1% of the total lawyer population of any state or province.
Founded in 1950, the American College of Trial Lawyers comprises the best of the trial bar from the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico. Fellowship is extended by invitation only, after a rigorous selection process. Candidates must have at least fifteen years of trial experience and must exemplify the highest standards of trial advocacy, professionalism, ethics, and civility. Membership in the College cannot be applied for; it is granted solely through peer recognition and thorough vetting by current Fellows.
The College is dedicated to preserving and enhancing the standards of trial practice and supporting the administration of justice through its commitment to the rule of law, trial by jury, and an independent judiciary. Once admitted into the College, a Fellow has the opportunity to attend events, workshops, CLE opportunities, and join one of the many committees dedicated to supporting the special programs within the College.
With over 30 years of trial experience, Stephanie has built a career defined by compassion for her clients and excellence in the courtroom. Throughout her career, she has been recognized for her leadership, professionalism, and advocacy on behalf of those who have suffered catastrophic injuries.
All of us at Cantor Grana Buckner Bucci congratulate Stephanie on this extraordinary and well-deserved honor!
