Every year, Super Lawyers Magazine creates a comprehensive list of attorneys from over seventy practice areas, all of whom have achieved a high level of professional accomplishments. Attorneys are chosen using a multiphase selection process, which takes peer nominations and evaluations, as well as independent research, into consideration.
