In 2022, there are over 1.3 million practicing lawyers around the country. With so many options, it can be difficult to discern which lawyer or firm can help you achieve your legal goals.
One way to ensure that you get the very best representation is to hire someone off the Super Lawyers list. Our firm is proud to announce that our very own attorney, Jason, was recently put on the list for 2022.
Are you interested in learning more about what this list is and how it ranks lawyers? Read on to find out!
First of all, our firm wants to take the time to give all due credit to Jason Estavillo. Attorney Estavillo recently was named as a Super Lawyer in 2022, and his title is well deserved.
Back in 2008, the financial crisis had a personal impact on attorney Estavillo. Estavillo saw families losing their homes. He also believed that the corruption of Wall Street and big banks played a major role.
After seeing all this, Estavillo developed a new passion. He strives to help families keep the American dream of home ownership alive and he focuses on practice areas like real estate litigation and foreclosure law.
Since then, Estavillo has been helping countless Californians keep their homes. He has no issue going up against big bankers to protect homeowners.
His perseverance, strength, skill, and track record all played a role in his recent title.
So, what exactly is Super Lawyers, anyway? Super Lawyers is a rating service. As you’d imagine, it ranks various lawyers across the country. Each year, Super Lawyers hand selects the very best attorneys to include in their lists.
You can find the Super Lawyer list in the Super Lawyers Magazine. This magazine highlights the list and all the attorney’s profiles. The magazine gets distributed in all 50 states. You can also find the list online.
Super Lawyers looks at various factors when deciding who to put on the prestigious list. Each candidate gets measured based on 12 factors including:
- Verdicts/settlements
- Position within law firm
- Bar and professional activity
- Pro bono and community service
- Scholarly lectures/writings
- Education and employment background
- Honors and awards
- Experience
- Representative clients
- Transactions
- Special licenses and certifications
- Other outstanding achievements
From there, lawyers go through a peer evaluation before the final selection.
