There are three common ways to evaluate the law practice of a personal injury attorney. (1) First, has the success of the law practice been recognized by Awards and Honors from the established legal community? (2) Second, what kind of Reviews and Testimonials has the law practice garnered from its former clients and from other lawyers? (3) Finally, third, what kind of success has the law practice had in its Verdicts and Settlements? These three measures provide some of the best information available about the quality of a particular law practice.

We are very proud of our awards and honors from the legal community. Our firm has the Top Rating possible from Martindale Hubbell which is probably the top rating service for attorneys in the U.S. Martindale Hubbell has rated our law firm as AV preeminent. We also have the best rating possible from AVVO.com (10 of 10) both for general practice and for personal injury. Our clients and our peers have both given us the top ratings possible from Lawyers.com (5.0 of 5.0 for Client Rating and 5.0 of 5.0 for Peer Rating). Mr. Lawson is a Life Charter Member of the Best Attorneys in America, he has been recognized as a 7 time member of the Top 100 for Civil Litigation by the American Society of Legal Advocates and he is listed in Marquis’ Who’s Who in the World, Who’s Who in America and Who’s Who in American Law. Links to those ratings and many others can be found on our Awards and Honors page.

There are many individual Reviews, Testimonials and Ratings of our law practice at many different legal sites for you to consider. We have gathered some of those reviews and testimonials here for your consideration. (We also hope that this will motivate you to give us a superb rating as well – after we successfully conclude your personal injury claims.) Perhaps the best recommendations for our firm come from our clients and our colleagues who have decided to let their feelings be made known. We are thankful and humbled that both our clients and our peers have consistently given us the highest ratings and recommendations possible.

Although we are proud of our track record in court, we are also very quiet about it. Virtually all of our cases and trials for over the last 10 years have resulted in highly favorable results for our clients, including a recent jury verdict in excess of $5 million and a recent settlement for $2 million. William H. Lawson is both a member of the Million Dollar Advocates Forum and one of only 5 or so members of the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum from Hawaii. However, we are very private about the results that we obtain. This is unquestionably best for our clients. We do not advertise on TV nor do we call press conferences about the cases we handle. In that light, unlike some firms, we are not willing to provide lists of the results of recent cases or decisions in which we were involved.

We would be honored to discuss your claims with you in confidence and, if appropriate, to assist you with the individualized top rated legal services and personalized attention that our clients have come to enjoy. Please choose us to consult with you about your claims so that we can show you why our clients and peers have consistently rated us as one of the best personal injury law firms in the State of Hawaii.
