"I always encourage my attorneys to put themselves or their colleagues in for consideration for Best Lawyers. I believe Best Lawyers is a cut above the other 'lists' and other attorneys often use the Best Lawyers site for information and referrals. This past year one of the founders of the firm and our president received the coveted letter announcing that he had been named. As soon as he shared the news with me I lobbied for our firm to take advantage of the link to Best Lawyers and we did so that day. I was pleasantly amazed and seriously delighted to learn the very next day that he had had a call directly from the Best Lawyer site and better yet, had landed a matter from that call. The client told him his attorney had a conflict and he knew he was on Best Lawyers so that is where he searched for a replacement. He chose our firm. I really can't ask for better than that."

"We indeed refer to Best Lawyers very often in these days. In the era of global economy, where emerging markets have more and more importance, it is critical to have a sense of who appears to be good in a given field of a given jurisdiction. For this purpose, we find the information given by Best Lawyers more and more important."

"The Best Lawyers in America has successfully established itself as a reputable and reliable clearinghouse of well-regarded attorneys. Inclusion is exclusive and coveted, and there is regular turnover in the attorneys listed. Woodward/White notes that Best Lawyers lists have been featured in more than 50 major metropolitan magazines in the past two years, an indication of how widely publicized the individual listings have become. This kind of exclusivity, and the solid reputation that the directory's selection process has achieved, make the directory a valuable resource for users."
