LexisNexis Martindale-Hubbell Lawyer Rating System

The law firm is rated AV by this Rating System. "A" is the highest rating in terms of quality of legal services and V is the highest in terms of professional ethics. These ratings attest to a lawyer's legal ability and professional ethics, and reflect the confidential opinions of members of the Bar and Judiciary.

For over 100 years, LexisNexis Martindale-Hubbell has provided the legal community with its Lawyer Rating system, which is based exclusively on a peer-review process. Lawyers are rated separately on legal ability and professional ethics reflecting the confidential opinions of the Bar and the Judiciary. The Ratings have become a useful resource for evaluating lawyers for hiring as outside counsel, for referrals, or for when seeking co-counsel in another jurisdiction.

Martindale-Hubbell's Ratings are considered invaluable when evaluating a lawyer. When making referrals or looking for counsel in another jurisdiction, lawyers need to have confidence in the individual under consideration. By reviewing the Ratings, they can select counsel with superior ethics, as well as the desired level of professional experience.
