Bert Polito has been named New London Area Best Lawyers Personal Injury Litigation – Plaintiff’s Lawyer of the Year for 2013

Best Lawyers, the oldest and most respected peer-review publication in the legal profession, has named Humbert J. Polito Jr. as the “New London Area Best Lawyers Personal Injury Litigation – Plaintiff’s Lawyer of the Year” for 2013.

After more than a quarter of a century in publication, Best Lawyers is designating “Lawyers of the Year” in high-profile legal specialties in large legal communities. Only a single lawyer in each specialty in each community is being honored as the “Lawyer of the Year.”

Best Lawyers compiles its lists of outstanding attorneys by conducting exhaustive peer-review surveys in which thousands of leading lawyers confidentially evaluate their professional peers. The current, 19th edition of The Best Lawyers in America (2013), is based on nearly 4 million confidential evaluations of lawyers by other lawyers.

The lawyers being honored as “Lawyers of the Year” have received particularly high ratings in the surveys by earning a high level of respect among their peers for their abilities, professionalism, and integrity.

Steven Naifeh, President of Best Lawyers, says, “We continue to believe – as we have believed for more than 25 years – that recognition by one’s peers is the most meaningful form of praise in the legal profession. We would like to congratulate Bert Polito on being selected as the ‘New London Area Best Lawyers Personal Injury Litigation – Plaintiff’s Lawyer of the Year’ for 2013.”
