Kristin Leaptrott Selected for U.S. Bank Law Division Spotlight on Talent Program

Kristin Leaptrott, a Phoenix-based Litigation & Dispute Resolution attorney at Quarles & Brady, has been selected as one of 15 associates to participate in the 2026 U.S. Bank Spotlight on Talent program. This year-long cohort experience focuses on building relationships and the professional development of rising talent at some of the bank’s select law firm partners.  

“As we prepare for the 2026 Spotlight on Talent program, we look forward to working with these 15 impressive associates from our partner firms,” said Jim Chosy, senior executive vice president and general counsel for U.S. Bank. “The time we spend together develops strong relationships and provides cohort members with unique exposure to our company, the Law Division, and the in-house practice. As a result, we are better positioned to navigate complex challenges together.”

Throughout the year, cohort members participate in leadership meetings, practice group roundtables, targeted workshops and networking events. A highlight each year is the opportunity to work with a mentor and make an educational presentation to the U.S. Bank Law Division. Spotlight participants strengthen their knowledge of the financial services industry and U.S. Bank’s business while developing lasting relationships with Law Division professionals and their cohort peers.
