Best Lawyers® is an elite global network of legal professionals recognized through trusted, peer-reviewed distinction. For over four decades, our Purely Peer Review® methodology has upheld the principle that recognition should be earned through the opinions of fellow attorneys, not marketing influence or paid listings.
Each year, more than 20 million confidential evaluations are collected worldwide, contributing to one of the legal industry’s most rigorous and trusted vetting processes. Only about 5% of lawyers in the United States and 3% globally are recognized, reflecting the selectivity and credibility of the results. Proprietary safeguards are in place to reduce bias and uphold the accuracy of the peer feedback.
For the 2027 edition of The Best Lawyers in America®, more than 30 million evaluations were analyzed. The Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch® in America recognitions were determined based on more than 6 million evaluations.
No fees are accepted for consideration or inclusion, maintaining the integrity and independence of all recognitions.
