Selection to America's Top 100 Criminal Defense Attorneys® is an exclusive distinction reserved for the nation's most esteemed white-collar and general criminal defense attorneys. According to the award's website, a rigorous selection process ensures only the most qualified attorneys receive this recognition.

Candidates undergo a comprehensive Qualitative Comparative Analysis, meticulously evaluated based on a range of criteria that come together to paint a picture of a passionate and highly effective criminal defense attorney. These criteria include but are not limited to:

• Professional Experience: All candidates should have years of experience practicing criminal law under their belt and have a proven track record of success with past clients.
• Litigation Experience: Candidates will have expertise in handling complex criminal cases through trial and beyond. This goes beyond the call of your more traditional cases and calls for experience in more difficult cases. 
• Significant Case Results: Candidates must have a history of achieving positive outcomes for clients facing serious criminal charges, not just a few good case results to brag about. 
• Representative High Stakes Matters: Experience successfully navigating high-profile or complex criminal cases that might go on for months or even years.
• Peer Reputation: Recognition and respect from fellow legal professionals within the criminal defense community is paramount. While having a positive reputation among clients is important, the most successful attorneys are respected and revered by those they go to trial against.
