About Super Lawyers
The selections for Minnesota Super Lawyers are made by the
research team at Super Lawyers, which is a service of the Thomson
Reuters legal division based in Eagan,
Minnesota. Each year the team conducts a thorough selection
process that includes a statewide survey of lawyers, independent
evaluation of candidates by the attorney-led research staff, a peer
review of candidates by practice area and a good-standing and
disciplinary check.
The final list of Minnesota Super Lawyers features the top five
percent of attorneys in more than 60 practice areas. Lawyers
featured on the Rising Stars list are selected based upon similar
criteria as Super Lawyers; however, a candidate must either be
