This year, for the first time, Best Lawyers will also publish in the United Kingdom, and release its first international guide including Australia, Ireland, Israel, Kenya, Singapore and South Africa. Best Lawyers compiles lists of outstanding attorneys by conducting exhaustive professional surveys in which thousands of leading lawyers confidentially evaluate their peers.
