AV Rated San Diego Personal Injury Attorneys

The law firm of Estey & Bomberger, LLP has received an AV® Peer Review Rating (the highest possible rating based on legal ability and ethical standards) from Martindale-Hubbell. Martindale-Hubbell evaluates attorneys and law firms in the United States and Canada, based on confidential options of other attorneys and judges. It is a significant accomplishment for a law firm to be rated AV by Martindale-Hubbell, and Estey & Bomberger, LLP is honored to have this title. Martindale-Hubbell, which has been in business for more than 130 years, is the most widely consulted legal reference source by attorneys and other professionals.

The Components of a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating

Martindale-Hubbell ratings are determined by attorneys for attorneys through a peer review process, and have two components – the Legal Ability Rating  and the General Ethical Standards Rating.   The  Legal Ability rating evaluates an attorney’s standard of professional ability in their practice area. The General Ethical Standards Rating is an indication of attorney’s standards of conduct and ethics.  The only rating available is a “V”, which stands for “very high.” An attorney must receive this General Ethical Standards Rating order to receive a Legal Ability Rating.

Legal Ability Ratings

Based on peer reviews, three ratings are available for a lawyer’s standard of professional ability. An “A” is given if an attorney is deemed to have “very high to preeminent” legal ability. A “B” identifies an attorney is deemed to have  “high to very high” legal ability, and a “C” is given if an attorney is deemed to have “good to high” legal ability.  An attorney must be a member of the bar for at least 10 years to be eligible for an AV Rating.
