Best Lawyers selects attorneys through a rigorous peer review process. Nominations are made by attorneys who are already listed in the publication, and the nominees are then evaluated by other lawyers in the same geographic region and practice area. The key question posed to voters is: "If you were unable to take a case yourself, how likely would you refer it to this nominee?" Responses are scored on a scale of one to five, and additional comments are considered. After verifying that nominees are in good standing with their state bar associations, Best Lawyers finalizes the list and notifies the honorees.
