Senior partner and managing director of the firm, Alan F. Sylvester, is one of only 1,880 lawyers in the United States to be continually listed in Best Lawyers since its first publication in 1983.
Sylvester & Maley, Inc. was founded in Burlington, Vermont in 1975 for the purpose of representing injured victims and their families. Since that time, its attorneys have successfully handled personal injury cases of local and national significance in areas, including: automobile accidents, defective products, medical malpractice, premises liability, pharmaceuticals, recreational accidents (including skiing accidents), liquor server's liability, carbon monoxide poisoning, sexual abuse and more.
Since its inception in 1983, Best Lawyers has become universally regarded as the definitive guide to legal excellence. Because Best Lawyers is based on an exhaustive peer-review survey in which more than 32,000 leading attorneys cast almost two million votes on the legal abilities of other lawyers in their practice areas, and because lawyers are not required or allowed to pay a fee to be listed, inclusion in Best Lawyers is considered a singular honor. Corporate Counsel magazine has called Best Lawyers “the most respected referral list of attorneys in practice.”
