Best Lawyers compiles its lists of outstanding attorneys by conducting exhaustive peer-review surveys in which thousands of leading lawyers confidentially evaluate their professional peers. “The methodology is designed to capture, as accurately as possible, the consensus opinion of leading lawyers about the professional abilities of their colleagues within the same geographical area and legal practice area.”  The process includes nomination, peer review, analysis of feedback and eligibility check. The lawyers being honored as “Best Lawyers” have received particularly high ratings in their surveys by earning a high level of respect among their peers for their abilities, professionalism and integrity.
