About Best Lawyers

Best Lawyers is one of the oldest and most respected peer-review publications in the legal profession. Since it was first published in 1983, Best Lawyers has become the definitive guide to legal excellence. Best Lawyers lists are compiled based on an exhaustive peer-review evaluation. Attorneys are not allowed to pay to be included as part of the annual list, making inclusion in Best Lawyers one of the highest accolades an attorney can receive. Corporate Counsel Magazine has called Best Lawyers "the most respected referral list of attorneys in practice."

About "Ones to Watch" Awards

Best Lawyers recognizes newer attorneys for outstanding legal excellence throughout the United States. Recipients of the "Ones to Watch" awards typically have been in practice less than 10 years, making the peer recognition even more significant.
