Super Lawyers® recognizes attorneys who have distinguished themselves in their legal practice. The patented selection process takes a diverse list of the top attorneys in the country as nominated by their peers. The nominations are then validated with third-party research across 12 key categories of peer recognition and professional achievement, and reviewed by a highly-credentialed panel of attorneys. Only five percent (5%) of attorneys are selected for recognition as Super Lawyers, and only 2.5 percent (2.5%) of attorneys are selected as Rising Stars. The Super Lawyers® lists are published annually as a special supplement in leading newspapers and city and regional magazines across the country.
