About Rising Stars and the Candidate Selection Process
The process for generating the annual “Rising Stars” attorney list is one that has been patented by The United States Patent and Trademark Office. The multiphase selection process is recognized by the Super Lawyers organization as one that is impartial and demonstrates significance for attorneys as well as consumers. Lawyers considered for candidacy are chosen from a pool of attorneys who have backgrounds in over 70 areas of legal practice. Only approximately 2.5 percent of lawyers are given the “Rising Stars” distinction.
Julie Gleason, who is the Super Lawyers Director of Research has remarked on selections, “We are honored to have a recently granted U.S. patent relating to lawyer-ratings. We take our credibility very seriously, and having a patent assures our customers that we strive to be innovation leaders in our area.”
According to the stated requirements, in order to be an eligible candidate for inclusion in the annual listing of Rising Stars, prospective attorneys must either be no older than 40 years of age or have been practicing law for no more than 10 years. Nominees are voted on by their professional peers before being subjected to a validation process, and subsequent evaluation by a panel of esteemed lawyers who make the final selections.
The list of Rising Stars is published in Super Lawyers Magazine across the United States, reaching more than an estimated 13 million readers nationwide.
