Super Lawyers, part of Thomson Reuters, is a rating service of outstanding lawyers from more than 70 practice areas who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. The company also recognizes Rising Stars, a list of “the top up-and-coming attorneys in [a] state – those who are 40 years old or younger, or who have been practicing for 10 years or less.” The annual selections are made using a patented multiphase process that includes a statewide survey of lawyers and an independent research evaluation of candidates and peer reviews by practice area. The result is a credible, comprehensive, and diverse listing of exceptional attorneys. For more information about Super Lawyers, go to SuperLawyers.com.
