Our legal firm, Colling Gilbert Wright, strives to give our injured clients outstanding representation and care through the arduous process of personal injury claims. We’re proud to share that not one but six of our Orlando attorneys have been recognized by the Super Lawyers organization for 2019. The rating service researches lawyers in more than 70 legal practice areas to identify those who show excellence in their field based on their achievements and recognition from peers.

The Super Lawyers Selection Process and Qualifications

Super Lawyers chooses just 2.5 percent of attorneys nationwide as “Rising Stars,” and five percent of U.S. attorneys as “Super Lawyers.” The process begins with a nomination which can come from peers, third parties, the Super Lawyers research team, or a managing partner survey. Independent research is conducted on nominees to evaluate these 12 qualities in a personal injury lawyer, some of which carry more weight than others:

1. Successful Verdicts and Settlements
2. Client Satisfaction based on representative clients
3. Honors and Awards
4. Transactions
5. Legal Experience
6. Certifications and Special Licenses
7. Position in the Law Firm
8. Memberships, Professional Bar Associations, and Activity
9. Community Service and Pro Bono Work
10.  Scholarly Writings, Lectures, and Speaking Engagements
11.  Employment History and Education Background
12.  Other Outstanding Achievements

Depending on a lawyer’s overall score from the criteria listed above, he or she may be placed on the Blue Ribbon Panel. The panel then evaluates other Rising Star or Super Lawyer candidates in their primary practice area.

Our personal injury lawyers at Colling Gilbert Wright are among the most dedicated in the field and have been recognized by multiple organizations such as “Florida Legal Elite” by Florida Trend Magazine, “Top 100 Trial Lawyers” by the National Trial Lawyers Association and Martindale-Hubbell AV ratings.
