72 McGuireWoods lawyers have been named Super Lawyers for 2009 in a recent study by Law & Politics magazine. The findings were published in Philadelphia and Pittsburgh magazines.
As part of the selection process, Law & Politics conducts a regional survey of lawyers who have been in practice for at least five years, asking them to nominate the best attorneys they’ve personally observed in action. In addition, the Law & Politics attorney-led research department reviews the nominees’ credentials based on a set of evaluation criteria. To ensure a diverse and well-balanced list, the research staff considers factors such as firm size, practice area and geographic location.
