Cohen, Placitella & Roth was recognized by Lexis Nexis Martindale-Hubbell® and Fortune Magazine™ as one of the top nationally ranked law firms in the US as determined by the firm’s percentage of AV® Preeminent rated lawyers.

The firm will appear in a “2012 Top Ranked Law Firm” list published in Fortune‘s December 26, 2011 ‘2012 Investor’s Guide’ issue.

Out of 254,000 firms rated by Lexis-Nexis Martindale-Hubbell®, only 965 firms were selected nationally for inclusion in the list for having at least one-third (33%) of their attorneys achieve an AV® Preeminent rating: 39 across PA, and only 21 law firms were included from Philadelphia.

The Lexis-Nexis Martindale-Hubbell® PEER REVIEW RATINGS are an objective indicator of a lawyer’s high ethical standards and professional ability, generated from evaluations of lawyers by other members of the bar and the judiciary in the United States and Canada. The first review to establish a lawyer’s rating usually occurs three years after his/her first admission to the bar.

LexisNexis facilitates secure online Martindale-Hubbell PEER REVIEW RATINGS surveys of lawyers across multiple jurisdictions and geographic locations, in similar areas of practice as the lawyer being rated. Reviewers are asked to assess their colleagues’ general ethical standards and legal ability in a specific area of practice.
