Law Firm of the Year Awards
“Law Firm of the Year” awards recognize a single top firm for its work in a specific legal practice area nationwide. Awards are determined based on a handful of factors including lawyer feedback, the number of lawyers included in Best Lawyersย for that firm and practice area, the number of office locations a firm has, historical analysis of the firmโs “Lawyer of the Year” awards, materials submitted by firms and the firmโs overall scope and areas of expertise.
Lawyer of the Year Awards
“Lawyer of the Year” honors are awarded annually to only one lawyer per practice area in each region with extremely high
overall feedback from their peers, making it an exceptional distinction. Lawyers are not required nor allowed to pay a fee to be listed;
therefore, inclusion in Best Lawyers is considered a singular honor.
