Disclaimers
Selection Process
The selection process is inherently subjective, reliant on the availability of publicly available information, including information which attorneys themselves make publicly available.
General
LFL is not a lawyer referral service. LFL makes no claim that any attorney is more or less equipped to competently and ethically represent any given client. Any attorney who has received this award must maintain ethical representations as to their qualifications in their own right. Similarly, clients and prospective clients seeking the services of an attorney should conduct their own inquiries in selecting an attorney who is suited to represent them in any given matter. The decision to choose or trust an attorney should not rely on an attorney’s recognition by LFL. LFL is an independent organization which, in selecting its members, is ultimately crafting an opinion, and makes no representations as to the basis of any given fact concerning an attorney’s qualifications.
