The Best Lawyers in America “is the oldest and most respected peer-review publication in the legal profession,” and is based on more than 3.1 million detailed evaluations of lawyers by other lawyers.” Lawyers “are not required or allowed to pay a fee to be included in The Best Lawyers in America,” and “have no say in deciding which practice areas they are included in;” they are selected for inclusion in the publication, and assigned practice areas, based entirely on the votes they receive from their peers.
Given that less than 3% of all attorneys in the U.S. are included in The Best Lawyers in America, it is a true honor for O’Neil Cannon to have approximately 25% of its attorneys selected for inclusion in this highly-respected publication.
