Michigan Super Lawyers: The Top Attorneys in Michigan

     For the second straight year, an agency has canvassed more than 30,000 Michigan lawyers in an attempt to identify the best of the best.  For the second year, it has named our partner, George R. Thompson, as one of the "Top Attorneys in Michigan" in its publication that accompanied the September 12 edition of the Detroit News.  While no "beauty contest" of this nature is entirely reliable, this is not a "paid" or "purchased" endorsement and the entire membership of the State Bar is invited to participate.  All candidates are evaluated on 12 indicators of peer recognition and professional achievement.  These factors include Verdicts and settlements, scholarly lectures and writing, honors and awards, special certification and community service, among other qualities.  No other Plaintiff [victim's representative] personal injury attorney from the Traverse City area was identified in either year.
