The 2009 Wisconsin Super Lawyers identifies the top 5 percent of attorneys in each state as chosen by their peers and through the independent research of Minneapolis-based Law & Politics, through a selection process in which every attorney in the state who has been licensed to practice for five years or more receives a ballot. Attorneys are asked to nominate the best lawyers they have personally observed in action – whether as opposing counsel or co-counsel, or through other first-hand observation in the courtroom. The intent is to discourage lawyers from voting for others based purely on reputation.
