Founded in 1981 and first published in 1983, Best Lawyers is the oldest lawyer-rating publication in the U.S., and the gold standard for accuracy and integrity.
Best Lawyers compiles lists of outstanding attorneys by conducting exhaustive peer-review surveys in which thousands of leading lawyers confidentially evaluate their professional peers. In the U.S., Best Lawyers publishes an annual referral guide, The Best Lawyers in America, which includes 39,766 attorneys in 80 practice areas, covering all 50 states and the District of Columbia.
The current, 16th edition of The Best Lawyers in America (2010), is based on more than 2.8 million detailed evaluations of lawyers by other lawyers. We also publish peer-reviewed listings in more than 48 countries around the world.
Because lawyers are not required or allowed to pay a fee to be included, a listing in Best Lawyers is widely regarded within the legal profession as a signal honor, conferred on a lawyer by his or her peers. Best Lawyers lists have earned the respect of the profession, the media, and the public, as the most reliable, unbiased source of legal referrals anywhere.
Best Lawyers listings also reach a broader and more important audience than any other lawyer-rating publication. Internationally, more than 200,000 individuals, 1,800 law firms, and 4,500 general counsel subscribe to BestLawyers.com. Our website hosts more than 20 million page views a year, many of them by Fortune 1000 companies.
More than 88,000 top general counsel see our lists in Incisive publications such Corporate Counsel and The American Lawyer, while more than 16 million readers see the lists in dozens of city and regional publications in the U.S. including The Washington Post, The Los Angeles Times, and New York Magazine as well as in major business and general publications around the world, from Business Day in South Africa to Expansion in Spain, from the Australian Financial Review to the National Post in Canada.
