Georgia Super Lawyers also honored HunterMaclean partner Brad Harmon as a 2013 Rising Star in business litigation and Colin McRae as a 2013 Rising Star in transportation/maritime law.
“Our firm is honored to have so many talented attorneys recognized for outstanding achievement in their practice areas by Super Lawyers and Rising Stars,” said Frank S. Macgill, HunterMaclean’s managing partner. “The fact that these awards are determined by peer recommendation makes them especially meaningful.”
The prestigious Georgia Super Lawyer title is awarded annually to the top five percent of attorneys in the state, as chosen by their peers and through independent research. Atlanta Magazine honors the firm’s lawyers in the March 2013 issue.
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. The selection process is multi-phased and includes independent research, peer nominations and peer evaluations.
Rising Stars feature attorneys 40 years of age or younger or who have been in practice for 10 years or less. The elite list of Georgia Rising Stars, representing a wide range of practice areas, is published in the March 2013 issue of Atlanta Magazine and in a special issue of Georgia Super Lawyers: Rising Stars.
Rising Stars are selected based upon ballots sent to Super Lawyers, who comprise the top five percent of attorneys in the state. Super Lawyers then vote for the best attorneys who fit the honor’s criteria regarding age and experience.
