Those practicing against each other in mediation or arguing across the aisle in court are providing positive feedback on their peers’ skillset, knowledge and professionalism. These awards are a genuine vote of confidence in their fellow lawyers.”
Best Lawyers lists are based on an exhaustive peer-review evaluation, with almost 94,000 industry-leading attorneys around the world eligible to vote.
