Best Lawyers has published their list for four decades, earning the respect of the profession, the media and the public as the most reliable, unbiased source of legal referrals. Best Lawyers lists are compiled based on an exhaustive peer-review evaluation. For the newest edition of The Best Lawyers in America more than 100,000 industry leading lawyers were voted on and more than 2.3 million evaluations on the legal abilities of other lawyers based on their specific practice areas were received resulting in more than 66,000 leading lawyers being included in the 2022 edition.

Lawyers are not required or allowed to pay a fee to be listed; therefore, 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.”

The process begins when lawyers are nominated for consideration. They are divided by geographic region and practice area and are evaluated by their peers based on professional expertise. Those who receive high peer reviews undergo an additional verification process to make sure they are currently practicing and in good standing. Only then can these top lawyers be recognized by Best Lawyers.
