The 2010 edition of The Best Lawyers in America® will recognize both of Kelley/Uustal’s founding partners, Bob Kelley and John Uustal as a “Best Lawyer” in the specialty of Personal Injury Litigation for the third year in a row. Selection to Best Lawyers is based on an exhaustive and rigorous peer-review survey comprising more than 2 million confidential evaluations by the top attorneys in the country.
The American Lawyer describes this annual, advertisement-free publication as “the most respected referral list of attorneys in practice.” Corporate Counsel magazine has called Best Lawyers “the most respected list of attorneys in practice.”
