Best Lawyers recognizes outstanding attorneys by using a sophisticated survey process based entirely on peer review on a national level. The “Lawyer of the Year Award” is only awarded to one individual for each specialty and location and is rated with the highest overall peer-feedback, making this accolade particularly significant. These lawyers are selected based on particularly impressive voting averages received during the peer review assessments. Receiving this designation reflects the high level of respect a lawyer has earned among other leading lawyers in the same communities and the same practice areas for their abilities, their professionalism and their integrity.
