We are pleased to announce that the legal profession’s most prestigious rating service has recognized Chris Adishian with its highest Peer Review RatingTM: AV Preeminent

Dear Clients and Friends of the Firm,

We are delighted to inform you that Chris Adishian has received Martindale-Hubbell’s Highest Peer Review RatingTM.

Chris received an “AV Preeminent” rating from his professional peers, which means that he was deemed to have preeminent legal ability and very high professional ethics.  The AV Preeminent rating designates attorneys who are ranked at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal expertise, communication skills and ethical standards by their peers.

Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings were created in 1887 as an objective tool that would attest to a lawyer’s ability and professional ethics, based on the confidential opinions of other lawyers and judges who have worked with the attorneys they are evaluating.  Back then the simple goal was to provide “lawyers, bankers, wholesale merchants, manufacturers, real estate agents and all others….the address of one reliable law firm… in every city in the United States.”  With all the advances in technology since that time, the same need still exists. 

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process evaluates lawyers based on the anonymous opinions of members of the Bar and the Judiciary, including both those who are rated and those who are not.  Reviewers are instructed to assess their colleagues’ general ethical standards and legal ability in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings have remained the most prestigious and widely respected lawyer rating system in the world for over one hundred years.

In this highly competitive environment for legal services, the Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating is often one of the only means to differentiate lawyers who may otherwise appear comparable in their credentials.

This is important on a variety of levels – from the in-house counsel trying to determine which one of his outside law firms should be assigned a new matter to the private practice attorney seeking to refer a case to another lawyer with the appropriate expertise in a specific area of practice.

We’re honored and grateful to receive this recognition from our peers. 

To arrange a call with Chris Adishian at Adishian Law Group or for more information about this rating, please Contact Us.

Thank you for your ongoing support, and it you know a potential client who could benefit from our legal services, we always welcome the opportunity to meet referrals from our clients and friends of the firm.  

Regards,
