Martindale-Hubbell gave Mr. Rothstein its highest rating – AV Preeminent – in the areas of Criminal Law, Personal Injury, and Litigation. According to Martindale-Hubbell “AV Preeminent is a significant rating accomplishment – a testament to the fact that a lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence.” Martindale-Hubbell’s Peer Review Ratings reflect a combination of achieving a Very High General Ethical Standards rating and a Legal Ability numerical rating. A threshold number of responses is required to achieve a rating. The General Ethical Standards rating denotes adherence to professional standards of conduct and ethics, reliability, diligence and other criteria relevant to the discharge of professional responsibilities. Those lawyers who meet the “Very High” criteria of General Ethical Standards can proceed to the next step in the rating process – Legal Ability. Lawyers who receive the AV Preeminent status have been awarded the highest ratings for their professional ethics and legal ability by their peers. Fewer than 8% of attorneys achieve an AV Preeminent rating.
