Fewer than .01 percent of all lawyers in the U.S. will
be named a member of the Lawdragon 500. To select
this prestigious group, Lawdragon’s editorial staff
conducts extensive research and phones thousands of
legal professionals to solicit their opinions about who
the best lawyers are. We then combine this research
with votes collected through our online ballots to produce
the Lawdragon 500 print magazine and online
feature.
