DALLAS, Dec. 9 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Lawdragon, a media company that provides legal news briefs and lawyer rankings, has named Winstead CEO and Chairman Denis Braham one of the "100 Managing Partners You Need to Know." This is the second consecutive year that Braham has been recognized in this list of top managing partners throughout the nation. Combined with editorial research and the opinions of 50,000 lawyers, judges and corporate counsel contacted for nomination requests, Lawdragon selected Braham to this prestigious list for his visionary leadership in the legal profession.
As CEO of Winstead, Braham works with the firm's executive committee, industry and client team leaders, practice group chairs, and support staff to focus on the growth of the firm as a trusted advisor to institutional and entrepreneurial clients.

Braham's work includes helping the City of Houston bring back an NFL franchise, build Reliant Stadium and secure one of the most lucrative naming rights deals for the stadium of its time. His strong background in new stadium development and financing was key in assisting the Dallas Cowboys through their new stadium process. Braham and his team of attorneys have also been associated with the successful bids for both Houston and North Texas to host Super Bowls, and he led a team of attorneys instrumental in coordinating the successful bids for other major events in Texas, including the 2010 NBA All-Star Game and the 2014 NCAA Men's Final Four, which will be played in the Dallas Cowboys new stadium in Arlington, Texas.
