What Is the Selection Process for Rising Stars?
The selection process for Rising Stars is rigorous. It begins with nominations. Lawyers nominate peers they have worked with and are seen as exceptional in the legal field in general and in their practice areas. Once selected, a candidate for Rising Star will be put through the Super Lawyer selection process.
Those not chosen as Super Lawyers will be re-evaluated as Rising Stars as long as they meet the qualifications. The qualifications are ten or fewer years working as a lawyer and 40 years old or younger. The equally rigorous Rising Star selection process will be carried out if candidates meet these qualifications. A nominal 2.5% of state lawyers are named Rising Stars, making it one of the most elite and rare designations for lawyers.
How Do Consumers Benefit From the Rising Star Designation?
While it is undoubtedly an honor to be named a Rising Star, not just the candidates themselves benefit from this designation. Consumers benefit most of all. The Rising Star designation allows laypeople to know immediately when a lawyer they are considering hiring is extraordinary.
Without Rising Star, Super Lawyer, and other legitimate designations, consumers must conduct their own research to find a qualified lawyer who will meet their needs. This can be tedious and complex work, and when you need legal services, it’s never a good time to take on extra stressors. Just look for lawyers who’ve met the Rising Star criteria, and you’ll know you’re dealing with an exceptional professional.
