Rogers Towers’ Attorneys Named to the 2016 Super Lawyers Lists
JACKSONVILLE, FL, June 22, 2016 – Rogers Towers, one of Florida’s oldest full service commercial law firms, is pleased to announce that 14 of its attorneys were named to the 2016 Super Lawyers list and 8 were named to the 2016 Super Lawyers – Rising Stars list. Additionally, Troy K. Smith was named to the Super Lawyers Top 100 and Cheryl L. Worman was named to the Super Lawyers Top 50 Women.
According to SuperLawyers.com, Super Lawyers is a rating service of outstanding lawyers from more than 70 practice areas who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. To compile the lists, Super Lawyers selects attorneys using a patented (U.S. Pat. No. 8,412,564) multi-phase selection process that includes a statewide survey of lawyers, an independent research evaluation of candidates on 12 indicators of peer recognition and professional achievement. Selections are made on an annual, state-by-state basis. The final published list represents no more than 5% of the lawyers in the state.
The selection process for the Rising Stars list is the same as the Super Lawyers selection process, with one exception: to be eligible for inclusion in Rising Stars, a candidate must be either 40 years old or younger, or in practice for 10 years or less. While up to 5% of the lawyers in the state are named to Super Lawyers, no more than 2.5% are named to the Rising Stars list.
The Super Lawyers Top 100 represents the listing of lawyers who ranked at the top of the list in the 2016 Florida Super Lawyers.
The Super Lawyers Top 50 Women represents the listing of the women lawyers who ranked at the top of the list in the 2016 Florida Super Lawyers.
