The "Best Lawyers in Dallas" list highlights attorneys across 40 practice areas. The peer-selection process posed the question: "Which Dallas lawyers, of those whose work you have witnessed firsthand, would you rank among the current best?" Nearly 9,000 attorneys were invited to provide two attorneys from outside their firm and one inside their firm in their area of practice. Finalists are selected by an independent panel of anonymous lawyers and confirmed by the magazine staff as well as the Texas State Bar.

The complete list will be published in the May issue of D Magazine.
