Best Lawyers in America
Who are The Best Lawyers in America? For over a quarter of a century, Best Lawyers® has been regarded – by both the profession and the public – as the definitive guide to legal excellence in the United States. Brian C. Vertz has been listed in the 2010 edition of The Best Lawyers in America for family law attorneys in Pennsylvania.
Selection to Best Lawyers is based on an exhaustive and rigorous peer-review survey comprising more than 2.8 million confidential evaluations by the top attorneys in the country. Because no fee or purchase is required, being listed in Best Lawyers is considered a singular honor. Their annual, advertisement-free publication has been described by The American Lawyer as “the most respected referral list of attorneys in practice.”
Best Lawyers is the oldest and most respected peer-review publication in the legal profession, helping lawyers and clients find legal counsel in unfamiliar jurisdictions or unfamiliar specialties. Best Lawyers compiles lists of outstanding attorneys by conducting exhaustive peer-review surveys in which thousands of leading lawyers confidentially evaluate their professional peers. 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.
The Best Lawyers Board of Advisors includes legal luminaries from almost every major world economy as well as general counsel from global companies with business on every continent. 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. For more than 25 years, 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.
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, Pittsburgh Magazine and New York Magazine as well as in major business and general publications around the world, from U.S. News & World Reports in the U.S. to Business Day in South Africa to Expansion in Spain, from the Australian Financial Review to the National Post in Canada.
