More about the Inner Circle of Advocates

The Inner Circle of Advocates was created to enable a group of talented plaintiffs’ attorneys to pool their collective insight and promote excellence in civil trial practice. A lawyer cannot simply apply and join the Inner Circle. No one is invited to join without at least three trial verdicts exceeding $1 million or one verdict exceeding $10 million dollars.

Membership in The Inner Circle of Advocates is not just an honor, it is a commitment to participate in a unique laboratory of professional advancement, resulting in justice.

To identify top trial lawyers, the organization carefully evaluates an attorney’s experience and standing in the legal community. The organization looks for lawyers in active practice who are willing to learn and educate others about their profession, and who wish to be part of a supportive group of colleagues who share ideas and experience.
