Eagerly Anticipated December Issue Hits Newsstands November
8.
NEW YORK – The editors of Worth magazine today announced their list
of the nation’s 100 most exceptional attorneys.
Hitting newsstands on November
8, the “100 Top Attorneys” list in the December issue is the culmination of a
year of extensive research by Worth’s editorial staff. The editors
reviewed hundreds of nominations by readers, as well those provided by financial
advisors, family office executives, accountants, consultants, academics and
others who work with or closely monitor attorneys.
In determining their
selections, Worth’s editors looked most carefully at attorneys specializing in
trust and estates, philanthropy, elder care, matrimonial and other private
practice areas. Specifically, they looked for professionals
who combined exceptional legal expertise with outstanding interpersonal skills
and great tact.
To pare its list down to 100, Worth’s editorial staff
“searched for those who can think beyond the numbers and routine of their daily
work,” explained Worth Features Editor Emily DeNitto. “We asked about how
they are responding to current trends and pivotal cases. We wanted to know
what types of strategic recommendations our nominees have made. We then
examined their years of experience, time spent both behind a desk and in front
of judges.”
Attorneys making the final list “did so because of their keen
sense of service,” Ms. DeNitto further explained. “They understand the
importance of being accessible to their clients and the delicacy of many of the
issues they deal with.”
