Leading Lawyers has grown out of extensive legal experience and is the most trusted and respected resource to locate reputable, experienced lawyers. The practice of law is unique in that you need to be a lawyer to judge the quality, experience and reputation of other lawyers. Each year, Leading Lawyers mails surveys to nearly every lawyer in Illinois and Michigan (to date), asking them which of th
eir peers, indeed their competitors, they would recommend to a family member or friend if they could not take a case within their area of law or geographic region. To maintain the quality and credibility of the survey, lawyers cannot nominate themselves or anyone at their own law firm. Based upon survey nominations and approval by our categorically and geographically diverse Advisory Board in each state, only the top lawyers are selected and eligible for membership in Leading Lawyers. In fact, less than 5% of all lawyers licensed in a state earn the distinction to call themselves, Leading Lawyers. Leading Lawyers provides extensive profiles of the most respected and experienced attorneys to assist you in your search for a highly qualified lawyer. In short, Leading Lawyers helps you find a better lawyer, faster.
