THE LEADING LAwYERS IN THE PUGET SOUND REGION FOR 2012, AS DETERMINED BY THEIR PEERS.

methodology the listThis list is excerpted from the 2012 edition of

The Best Lawyers in America, the preeminent referral guide to the legal profession in the

United States. Published since 1983, Best Lawyers lists attorneys in 91 specialties, representing all 50 states, who have been chosen through an exhaus-tive survey in which thousands of the nation’s top lawyers confidentially evaluate their professional peers. The 2012 edition of Best Lawyers is based on more than 2.8 million evaluations of lawyers by other lawyers.

The method used to compile Best Lawyers re-mains unchanged since the first edition was com-piled more than 25 years ago. Lawyers are chosen for inclusion based solely on the vote of their peers. Listings cannot be bought, and no purchase is re-quired to be included. In this regard, Best Lawyers remains the gold standard of reliability and integrity in lawyer ratings.

The nomination pool for the 2012 edition con-sisted of all lawyers whose names appeared in the previous edition of Best Lawyers, lawyers who were nominated since the previous survey and new nomi-nees solicited from listed attorneys. In general, law-yers were asked to vote only on nominees in their own specialties in their own jurisdictions. Lawyers in closely related specialties were asked to vote across specialties, as were lawyers in smaller jurisdictions. Where specialties are national or international in na-ture, lawyers were asked to vote nationally as well as locally. Voting lawyers were also given an opportunity to offer more detailed comments on nominees. Each year, half of the voting pool receives fax or email bal-lots; the other half is polled by phone.

Voting lawyers were provided this general guideline for determining if a nominee should be listed among “the best”: “If you had a close friend or relative who needed a real estate lawyer (for ex-ample), and you could not handle the case yourself, to whom would you refer them?” All votes and com-ments were solicited with a guarantee of confiden-tiality—a critical factor in the viability and validity of Best Lawyers surveys. To ensure the rigor of the selection process, lawyers were urged to use only their highest standards when voting, and to evalu-ate each nominee based only on his or her individ-ual merits. The additional comments were used to make more accurate comparisons between voting patterns and weight votes accordingly. Best Law-yers uses various methodological tools to identify and correct for anomalies in both the nomination and voting process.

Ultimately, of course, a lawyer’s inclusion is based on the subjective judgments of his or her fellow attorneys. While it is true that the list may at times disproportionately reward visibility or popu-larity, the breadth of the survey, the candor of the respondents and the sophistication of the polling methodology largely correct for any biases.

For all these reasons, Best Lawyers lists con-tinue to represent the most reliable, accurate and useful guide to the best lawyers in the United States available anywhere.
