Super Lawyers magazine is published by Minneapolis-based Law & Politics. Each year, Law & Politics undertakes a rigorous multi-phase selection process for "Rising Stars" that includes a statewide survey of lawyers, independent evaluation of candidates by Law & Politics' attorney-led research staff, and a good-standing and disciplinary check.
