Super Lawyers is a rating of outstanding lawyers from more than 70 practice areas who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. Rising Stars is a designated list selected by Super Lawyers of the state's top up-and-coming attorneys—those who are 40 years old or younger, or who have been practicing law for 10 years or less.
Each year, Super Lawyers selects attorneys using a multiphase rating process that includes peer nominations and evaluations, combined with third-party research. Each candidate is evaluated on 12 indicators of peer recognition and professional achievement. Selections are made on an annual, state-by-state basis. The objective is to create a credible, comprehensive, and diverse listing of outstanding attorneys that can be used as a resource for attorneys and consumers searching for legal counsel.
