Super Lawyers is a national rating service which rates attorneys in all 50 states. The selection process is multi-phased and includes independent research, peer nominations and peer evaluations. As part of its process, Super Lawyers surveyed more than 15,000 attorneys and judges in Wisconsin, looking for the best attorneys in the State.
The New Jersey Supreme Court recently upheld the findings of a Special Master who made the following determinations about Super Lawyers:
“[T]he selection procedures employed by [Super Lawyers] are very sophisticated, comprehensive and complex.
It is absolutely clear… that [Super Lawyers does] not permit a lawyer to buy one’s way onto the list, nor is there any requirement for the purchase of any product for inclusion in the lists or any quid pro quo of any kind or nature associated with the evaluation and listing of an attorney or in the subsequent advertising of one’s inclusion in the lists.”
