Best Lawyers has been regarded by lawyers and the public for more than 40 years as the most credible measure of legal integrity and distinction in the United States. The 2027 editions of The Best Lawyers in America® and Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch® in America honor attorneys whose dedication and skill set the standard for excellence in the legal profession.
Inclusion in The Best Lawyers in America® is based on a comprehensive peer-review survey. This year's awardees were determined through 3.8 million evaluations submitted during the current cycle, adding to a cumulative total of more than 30 million historical evaluations, with more than 32,000 lawyers voting. Only about 5% of practicing U.S. attorneys earn a Best Lawyer distinction, underscoring the award’s exclusivity. Lawyers are not required nor allowed to pay a fee to be listed; therefore, inclusion in The Best Lawyers in America® is considered a singular honor.
