About “Best Lawyers”

“Best Lawyers in America” bills itself as a comprehensive guide to the country’s top attorneys. The selection process begins with a peer nomination. Next, attorneys in the same geographic region and practice areas evaluate the nominees. Independent research verifies attorneys’ credentials before the final selection is made.

The selection process is the same for “Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch,” which includes attorneys who have practiced for less than ten years.
