Heygood Orr & Pearson is proud to announce that Michael Heygood, Jim Orr and Eric Pearson were named to the Super Lawyers® list for the year 2009. The Super Lawyers list is comprised of just 5% of attorneys in each state, as ranked by their peers. The selections are made by Law & Politics, a division of Key Professional Media, Inc. Each year, Law & Politics undertakes a rigorous multi-phase selection process that includes a statewide survey of lawyers, independent evaluation of candidates by Law & Politics’ attorney-led research staff, a peer review of candidates by practice area, and a good-standing and disciplinary check.
The objective of the Super Lawyers selection process is to create a “credible, comprehensive and diverse listing of outstanding attorneys that can be used as a resource to assist attorneys and consumers in the search for legal counsel.” Our firm has been recognized in the following areas of practice:
• Business Litigation
• Personal Injury Plaintiff: General
• Personal Injury Plaintiff: Products
The competition for this honor is tremendous and we’re pleased to be recognized by our peers as being among the finest attorneys in the United States. We’re extremely proud that 2008 marks the sixth consecutive year that one or more of our partners has been included in this prestigious list
