Peer recognition in the legal profession carries a particular kind of weight. When attorneys evaluate and nominate colleagues they consider among the best in a given practice area, those assessments reflect direct observation of legal work in real cases — not marketing or advertising, but professional judgment from people who know the field and the practitioners in it.
Mandelbaum Barrett PC is pleased to announce that Joseph Peters has been named to New Jersey’s Best Lawyers for Families list for 2018. The Best Lawyers designation is determined through a peer nomination and peer review process in which attorneys evaluate colleagues within their practice area. Being selected for this recognition reflects the professional standing Peters has developed among New Jersey family law practitioners through his work on behalf of clients navigating divorce, custody, and related matters. Peters is a member of the firm’s family law practice, where he represents clients in matrimonial and family law proceedings throughout New Jersey.
About the Best Lawyers Recognition
Best Lawyers is among the oldest and most widely recognized legal peer review publications in the United States. The selection process is based entirely on peer evaluation — attorneys in a given practice area nominate and assess colleagues they consider among the leading practitioners in the field. Because recognition derives from peer judgment rather than from client submissions or the publication itself, inclusion reflects the accumulated professional assessments of attorneys who have observed or encountered a practitioner’s work.
Inclusion in Best Lawyers for Families specifically recognizes attorneys whose peers consider them among the leading practitioners in family law, which encompasses divorce, child custody and parenting time, child support, alimony, asset division, and related matters. The designation reflects the collective assessment of attorneys who practice in this area and who are positioned to evaluate the quality of their colleagues’ work.
