Law & Politics annually surveys attorneys across the country and uses a peer nomination system to compile statewide and regional lists of "Super Lawyers" based on their findings. Attorneys are asked to vote for the best lawyers they have personally observed in action. The final list of Northern California Super Lawyers features the top 5 percent of attorneys in the region across more than 50 practice areas, according to
Law & Politics.
