Are the hallmarks of a strong litigation law firm and define Peterson, Johnson & Murray, S.C.
For the true test of a law firm lies not in what it says about itself, but in what clients, judges and other lawyers say about the firm. Professional reputation – earned through years of competent, aggressive, and ethically sound representation – is the true measure of a law firm. It is the most valuable asset a client can have when sitting down at a negotiation table or entering a courtroom.
Milwaukee Magazine has surveyed attorneys and judges repeatedly to identify the best lawyers in the metropolitan Milwaukee area. Each time, the three founding shareholders of Peterson, Johnson & Murray, S.C., were identified as among the top attorneys. Each survey rated one of the firm's senior partners as the best attorney for the defense against civil litigation claims.
The most recent such survey, conducted by the nationally based Super Lawyers Organization, resulted in comparable recognition. Two of the firm's senior partners were recognized as among the top ten attorneys in the state, inclusive of all practice areas. Furthermore, twenty percent of the firm's attorneys received the distinction of "Super Lawyer" designation based upon votes solicited from over 12,000 practicing attorneys, review by independent panels from those nominated by that process, and additional research and evaluation. Few if any firms in Wisconsin can boast such a concentration of widely recognized and praised attorneys.
Three of the firm's attorneys have received the honor of fellowship in the American College of Trial Lawyers, recognizing the outstanding trial attorneys throughout the country. Five of the firm's attorneys have also received advocate status by the American Board of Trial Advocates, recognizing nationally the trial achievements of civil litigation attorneys.
