There is no opportunity to pay for a listing, resulting in a comprehensive register of exceptional attorneys. Only 5% of New England's lawyers are Super Lawyers. Rising Stars are under 40 years of age, or have been practicing law for less than ten years. Less than 2.5% of New England lawyers were named as Rising Stars.
