Best Lawyers ® began designating “Lawyers of the Year” in the United States in high-profile legal practice areas in conjunction with its 15th edition (2009). Since then, it has expanded to many other countries where the Best Lawyers ® peer-review process is conducted. Only a single lawyer in each practice area and designated metropolitan area is honored as the “Lawyer of the Year.”
Best Lawyers ® compiles its lists of attorneys by conducting peer-review surveys in which thousands of leading lawyers confidentially evaluate their professional peers. The current, 21th edition of The Best Lawyers in America (2015) is based on millions of detailed evaluations of lawyers by other lawyers.
Those being honored as “Lawyers of the Year” have received particularly high ratings in Best Lawyers ® surveys by earning a high level of respect among their peers for their abilities, professionalism, and integrity.
