LOS ANGELES, Jan. 27, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Boutique political and government law firm Kaufman Legal Group announced today that its Founding Partner, Stephen J. Kaufman, has been selected by his peers for inclusion in the 2022 Super Lawyers list and is recognized as a "Top Rated Legislative & Governmental Affairs Attorney in Los Angeles."
