Eight W&M attorneys named to Super Lawyers lists

Wilkes & McHugh is excited to announce that Super Lawyers named eight of our attorneys to either the Super Lawyers or Rising Stars lists for 2017.

Super Lawyers is a rating service that utilizes independent research, peer nominations and peer evaluations to identify outstanding lawyers from more than 70 practice areas. They use 12 indicators, including verdicts, community service, and professional activity, to evaluate candidates.

Only 2.5 percent of attorneys in a given state are named Rising Stars, and only 5 percent of attorneys are named Super Lawyers.
