The National Trial Lawyers – Top 100 Trial Lawyers 2014 - 2021
Top 100 is an invitation-only organization composed of the premier trial lawyers from each state in the nation who meet stringent qualifications as civil plaintiff and/or criminal defense trial lawyers. Selection is based on a thorough multi-phase process which includes peer nominations combined with third-party research. Membership is extended solely to the select few of the most qualified attorneys from each state who demonstrate superior qualifications of leadership, reputation, influence, stature and public profile.
Selection to America's Top 100 Personal Injury Attorneys® is by invitation only and is comprised of the nation's most exceptional trial lawyers for high-value personal injury, catastrophic injury, wrongful death, product liability, and medical malpractice matters. For initial consideration, an attorney must focus more than 50% of their active legal practice on personal injury, catastrophic injury, wrongful death, product liability, and/or medical malpractice matters. Thereafter, qualifying candidates are ranked using Advanced Data Analytics to evaluate a broad array of criteria, including the candidate's professional experience, legal achievements, significant personal injury settlements and/or verdicts, peer reputation, and community impact (See Selection Methodology for more information about the selection process) to determine the Top 100 Personal Injury Attorneys in each state*.
With these extremely high standards for selection to America's Top 100 Personal Injury Attorneys®, less than one-half percent (0.5%) of active attorneys in the United States will receive this honor - truly the most exclusive and elite level of litigators in the community.
The American Society of Legal Advocates, ASLA, is an invitation-only, nationwide organization of elite lawyers in practice today.
