Every year, America’s Top 100 recognizes 100 attorneys in each state and highlighting their accomplishments. Using a proprietary selection methodology, along with specific criteria, the organization seeks out attorneys throughout the US for their exceptional work in their chosen field of law.
A high-stakes litigator is one who has:
- Litigated a case worth at least $2M, either for a plaintiff or a defendant, or
- Litigated a case involving a business with an outcome worth at least $2M
The attorney is initially nominated by a peer or through third-party research and is by invitation-only. Once selected, the candidates are vetted through the organization’s criteria and algorithms to determine their eligibility. Additional criteria include:
- Professional achievements
- Lifetime legal experience
- Client satisfaction
- Peer reputation
- Community impact
- Media notoriety
Each candidate for America’s Top 100 High Stakes Litigator honor must pass a series of stages in the screening process. This award has very high standards, and only the top .5% of the active attorneys in the US will receive an invitation.
