Two Partners Named to List of The Best Lawyers in America

Coral Gables, Florida (July 31, 2009) - Wm. Andrew "Andy" Haggard and Michael A. Haggard, partners of The Haggard Law Firm, were recently named to the 2010 edition of Best Lawyers®, the oldest and most respected peer-review publication in the legal profession (Copyright 2008 by Woodward/White, Inc., of Aiken, S.C.).

First published in 1983, Best Lawyers is based on an exhaustive annual peer-review survey. For the new U.S. edition, more than 24,126 leading attorneys cast more than 2.8 million votes on the legal abilities of other lawyers in the same and related specialties.

Because of the rigorous and transparent methodology used by Best Lawyers, and because lawyers are not required or allowed to pay a fee to be listed, inclusion in Best Lawyers is considered a singular honor. Corporate Counsel magazine has called Best Lawyers "the most respected referral list of attorneys in practice."
