NEW JERSEY SUPER LAWYERS AND RISING STARS

No aspect of this advertisement has been approved by the Supreme Court of New Jersey.

Selection for inclusion to the the Super Lawyer listing follows a 4-step selection process which is a comprehensive, good-faith and detailed attempt to produce a list of lawyers that have attained high peer recognition, meet ethical standards, and have demonstrated some degree of achievement in their field. Step one is the creation of the candidate pool where lawyers enter the candidate pool by being formally nominated by a peer; identified by the research department in the “Star Search” process; or informally nominated.  The second step includes the evaluation of the lawyers in the candidate pool.  Super Lawyers’ research department evaluates each candidate baed on these 12 indicators of peer recognition and professional achievement: verdicts and settlements; transactions; representative clients; experience; honors and awards; special licenses and certifications; position within law firm; bar and or other professional activity; pro bono and community service as a lawyer; scholarly lectures and writings; education and employment background; and other outstanding achievements.  These indicators are not treated equally; some have a higher maximum point value than others.  The third step in the selection process is to be evaluated by the attorneys peers by practice area.  The final selection for the Super Lawyers list is by grouping candidates into four firm-size categories.  Those with the highest point totals from each category are selected.

The Rising Star selection process is the same as the Super Lawyers selection process except that: 1) to be eligible for inclusion in Rising Stars, a candidate must be either 40 years old or younger or in practice for ten years or less; 2) Candidates for Rising Stars do not go through step-three above in the selection process – peer evaluation by practice area.

BEST LAWYERS

The method used to compile Best Lawyers remains unchanged since the first edition was compiled more than 28 years ago. Lawyers are chosen for inclusion based solely on a vote of their peers. Listings cannot be bought, and no purchase is required to be included. In this regard, Best Lawyers remains the gold standard of reliability and integrity in lawyer ratings.
