Super Lawyers is a listing of outstanding lawyers from more than 70 practice areas who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. It’s published as a special supplement in leading newspapers and magazines across the country. Super Lawyers magazine, featuring articles about attorneys named to the Super Lawyers list, is distributed to all attorneys in most every state, the lead corporate counsel of Russell 3000 companies and the American Bar Association-approved law school libraries.

The selection process is as follows: Super Lawyers conducts an annual, statewide survey of lawyers, who are asked to nominate the best attorneys they’ve observed in action. The attorneys surveyed are not allowed to nominate themselves, and if they nominate someone from their own firm, the nomination must be matched by a lawyer from an outside firm.

The Michigan Super Lawyer publication features only the top percent of attorneys in Michigan as chosen by their peers and through the independent research of Law & Politics.
