Troutman Sanders' Virginia Attorneys Rank in Top Five Percent

July 15, 2010

RICHMOND, Va.Troutman Sanders LLP is pleased to announce that 51 of its lawyers have been selected for inclusion in the 2010 edition of Law & Politics’ Virginia Super Lawyers.

 

For inclusion and distinction as a “Super Lawyer,” attorneys are selected by their peers based on an extensive balloting, research and blue-ribbon review process. This year, Law & Politics sent out thousands of ballots to active Virginia lawyers and asked them to nominate attorneys whom they have personally observed in litigation, transactional or other legal matters. The voting attorneys were asked not to choose a candidate based on reputation alone, but on certain criteria, such as peer recognition, professional achievement, civic service and pro bono activities. 

 

Ranking in the top five percent of active, licensed attorneys in the state, Troutman Sanders’ 2010 Virginia Super Lawyers are:
