PEER EVALUATION BY PRACTICE AREA
Candidates are grouped according to their
primary practice areas. Candidates in each
practice area who received the highest
point totals in the steps above are asked to
serve on a review panel.
FINAL SELECTION
Candidates are grouped into categories
based on firm size. The attorneys with
the highest totals from each category are
selected. Thus, lawyers are grouped with
other lawyers of comparable firm size.
