Inclusion in The Best Lawyers in America® is determined through a comprehensive peer-review survey. The 31ˢᵗ edition reached a historic milestone with over 250,000 voters having participated in our voting process since we began asking the very best: “If you are unable to take a case, how likely would you be to refer your client to this lawyer?” To create the awards over 23 million evaluations were analyzed including a record breaking 3 million responses from this year alone. Our commitment to our industry-driven, purely peer-based review process is central to our philosophy, as we believe that the top lawyers are best suited to identify their peers at the highest level.
