Each year, no more than 5% of the lawyers in the state are selected by the research team at Super Lawyers to receive this honor, and no more than 2.5% are selected for Rising Stars. Super Lawyers, a Thomson Reuters business, is a rating service of outstanding lawyers from more than 70 practice areas who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. The annual selections are made using a patented multiphase process that includes a statewide survey of lawyers, an independent research evaluation of candidates, and peer reviews by practice area. The result is a credible, comprehensive, and diverse listing of exceptional attorneys.

The Super Lawyers and Rising Stars lists are issued by Thomson Reuters. A description of the full methodology is available here. No aspect of this advertisement has been approved by the Supreme Court of New Jersey.
