“To have four of our practicing attorneys named in this year’s publication for two practice areas each is a huge honor. It demonstrates that our focus of putting our client’s best interests above all else is both rewarding and effective.”
Michael Timberlake
Each lawyer named must first be nominated by a peer. Once they receive the nomination, lawyers on the current list then provide feedback on the nominees. This publication then reviews this feedback and confirms the nominees are in good standing with their local bar associations.
Honorees represent the top five percent of practicing attorneys. The publication does not allow firms or lawyers to purchase consideration.
