Based in Maryland, Alpert Schreyer Poe is home to a team of attorneys often met with acclaim by legal industry organizations. Most recently, Super Lawyers® has recognized four of the firm's attorneys in either the 2021 Maryland Super Lawyers® list or with a 2021 Maryland Rising Stars recognition — distinctions only a select few lawyers earn during their careers.
To earn these distinctions, attorneys must pass the Super Lawyers® review, which is composed of multiple phases. The first of these phases is nomination, meaning attorneys must be either identified by the Super Lawyers® Research Team or nominated by a third party, such as a peer, client, or colleague at their firm. They are then evaluated on a dozen different categories considered by Super Lawyers® to be indicative of professionalism, achievement, and peer regard (e.g. verdicts and settlements, position within their law firm, other accolades, educational background, and more). Then, they are reevaluated by a Blue Ribbon Panel of top-rated attorneys in their respective practice areas.
For each edition of Super Lawyers®, no more than 5% of all the nation's practicing attorneys pass the review and earn a listing in the publication. Likewise, no more than 2.5% of attorneys obtain Rising Stars recognition on an annual basis. Please note: Rising Stars is reserved for early career lawyers (no older than age 40 or in practice for less than a decade) who pass the review.
