Michael Burg said, "We are very proud of all the fine lawyers in our firm who have been selected to be included in the latest edition of The Best Lawyers in America."

First published in 1983, Best Lawyers is based on an exhaustive annual peer-review survey. For the new U.S. edition, more than 24,126 leading attorneys cast more than 2.8 million votes on the legal abilities of other lawyers in the same and related specialties.

Because of the rigorous and transparent methodology used by Best Lawyers, and because lawyers are not required or allowed to pay a fee to be listed, inclusion in Best Lawyers is considered a singular honor. Corporate Counsel magazine has called Best Lawyers "the most respected referral list of attorneys in practice."

Steven Naifeh, Managing Editor of Best Lawyers, says, "We continue to believe - as we have believed for 26 years - that recognition by one's peers is the most meaningful form of recognition in the legal profession."
