Any law firm can ask to be considered for our medical malpractice lawyer lists. It is free, and the outcome depends only on our published methodology.
What we check
- Medical malpractice work: your own website shows that you handle medical malpractice cases, and for a niche list, cases in that niche
- A local presence: an office in the city or its metro area, or a clear statement that you represent clients there
- License and discipline: the state bar or law society record for the lawyers who handle these cases, where the directory is public
What we score
Verified firms are scored out of 100: focus on malpractice 25, results 20, client reviews 20, experience 15, standing 10 and recognition 10. The scoring rubric explains each factor.
What to send
- Your firm's name, website and the office addresses that serve the city
- The cities, and any niches, you want us to consider you for (for example birth injury or wrongful death)
- The page on your site that describes your medical malpractice work
- The names of the lawyers who handle these cases, and the bar or law society where each is licensed
- Links to any malpractice results you publish, and to any court record or news report that confirms them
- Whether you offer a free consultation and work on contingency, and the languages your team speaks
