Best Lawyers, the oldest and most respected peer-review publication in the
legal profession, has named Sullivan &
Worcester partner John K. Graham as the "Boston Best Lawyers
Non-Profit/Charities Lawyer of the Year" for 2011.
Only a single lawyer in each specialty in each community is being honored as
the "Lawyer of the Year."
Best Lawyers compiles its lists of outstanding attorneys by conducting
exhaustive peer-review surveys in which thousands of leading lawyers
confidentially evaluate their professional peers. The current, 17th edition of
The Best Lawyers in America (2011) is based on more than 3.1 million detailed
evaluations of lawyers by other lawyers. The lawyers being honored as "Lawyers
of the Year" have received particularly high ratings in the surveys by earning a
high level of respect among their peers for their abilities, professionalism and
integrity.
"We are very proud of John and his appointment as a 'Lawyer of the Year,'"
said Joel R. Carpenter, co-managing partner of Sullivan & Worcester. "The
distinction is a testament to his unique experience in this area and his
dedication to serving his clients."
