ABOUT US

The highest distinction that a lawyer can achieve from The Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ is AV Preeminent. According to Martindale-Hubbell®, “an elite group of approximately 10 percent of all attorneys holds an AV Preeminent Rating, a designation trusted worldwide by consumers and referrers of legal services.” The “A” portion indicates the highest possible rating for legal ability, while the “V” portion indicates adherence to the highest standard of professional conduct. All of our firm’s Members have received, from their peers, the distinguished rating of AV Preeminent.

Our firm is also an invited Member of the Claims and Litigation Management Alliance (formerly Council on Litigation Management), a national organization that recognizes commitment to professional excellence and integrity in the representation of our clients.
