NPCER: Lawyers, is this even legit?
I have an administrator wanting me to feature two alumni on our website because they are "Super Lawyers" - http://www.superlawyers.com/
Is that site/pub a legit award/recognition or is this a bunch of marketing clap trap? Google is giving me mixed answers.
Re: NPCER: Lawyers, is this even legit?
I don't know much about it.
But being on there doesn't mean you are a super lawyer. It's just a search engine to find lawyers.
Martindale Hubble runs a peer review rating system for lawyers, and that's the real thing to promote. If the lawyers are "AV-rated" by Martindale, that might be worth mentioning.
ETA - I just looked at the website, and I could be wrong about my initial impression. I was confusing it with AVVO, which is a search engine for lawyers. It might be worth mentioning, but I'm not sure. I've always thought the Martindale rankings carried more weight, but I could be wrong.
I've never heard of it. It seems a bit sketch, what with the questions on the bottom for the "Super Lawyers."

it's legit. well, as legit as any of these ego-stroking nonsense things can be. you have to be nominated by somene externally as well as internally and there are parameters and so forth.
Interesting. I feel like I see the AV thing mentioned a lot in bios and in ads for hiring, but never the Super Lawyer thing. Is it newer?
It may be newer, but it is very popular in the southeast.
Above Us Only Sky
Not a lawyer but my dh has been picked twice as a 'Rising Star' (basically a Super Lawyer with less then 10 years experience.) In our area the lawyers that are selected are printed in a well known regional magazine. I was pretty proud!
