Best Lawyers lists are based entirely on peer-review evaluation. The methodology is designed to capture the consensus opinion of leading lawyers about the professional abilities of their colleagues within the same geographical area and legal practice. Best Lawyers employs a sophisticated, conscientious, rational, and transparent survey process designed to elicit meaningful and substantive evaluations of the quality of legal services. It is their belief that the quality of a peer review survey is directly related to the quality of voters.
We’d like to congratulate Mr. Schechter and Mr. Shaffer for this outstanding achievement!
