‘Go To Lawyers’ for medical malpractice announced

Virginia Lawyers Weekly is pleased to announce the “Go To Lawyers” for medical malpractice, for both plaintiffs’ and defense side.

Honorees will be profiled in a special section in December.

Now in its fourth year, the “Go To Lawyers” program recognizes top lawyers in a particular practice area. Earlier this year, we celebrated “Virginia’s Go To Lawyers” for business litigation, appeals and commercial real estate. Last year, medical malpractice, intellectual property, employment and business law practitioners were honored.

A “Go To Lawyer” is:

• A lawyer who is an expert in his or her field, well-versed in the nuances of the case law, statutes and regulations clients will encounter.
• A lawyer who is experienced and enjoys a record of success, with many cases and/or transactions that give testimony to the quality advice he or she can provide.
• A lawyer to whom other lawyers make referrals because of his or her expertise and accomplishments.
• A lawyer who can think creatively and identify all options for a client.
• A lawyer you would name when a friend from another state calls and says she has a client who needs some legal help in a given part of the commonwealth.

Please join us in congratulating these outstanding lawyers specializing in all aspects of medical malpractice law.
