About Best Lawyers
Best Lawyers is considered a singular honor.
The Best Lawyers lists, representing 57 specialties in all 50 states and Washington, DC, are compiled through an exhaustive peer-review survey in which thousands of the top lawyers in the U.S. confidentially evaluate their professional peers. The current, 12th edition of Best Lawyers (2006), is based on more than 415,000 detailed evaluations of lawyers by other lawyers.
The standard for inclusion is rigorous and more than 18,500 leading attorneys throughout the United States cast more than a million votes on the legal abilities of their colleagues. Because no fee or purchase is required to be listed, inclusion in Best Lawyers has gained the respect of the legal profession, the media, and clients as the most reliable, unbiased source of legal referrals anywhere.
It has received accolades from presidents of the American Bar Association, been frequently featured in the U.S. media and excerpted in more than 50 major metropolitan newspapers and magazines.
