Super Lawyers is a rating service that is thorough in its vetting process. Lawyers are recognized in 70 practice areas and must have a very high level of peer reviews and professional recognition. This annual selection process uses a multi-phased process including nominations, peer reviews from lawyers practicing in same areas, and independent research. Only five percent of lawyers in the state receive this honor. The Rising Star attorneys must be age 40 years old or less and must have practiced law for less than ten years. The nominees go through the same rigorous process, and only 2.5 % of lawyers in the state are named as Rising Stars.

Weathington McGrew Attorneys Defend Trial Victory At Supreme Court
On Monday January 9, 2017, Weathington McGrew attorneys Paul Weathington argued in front of the Georgia Supreme Court to preserve a favorable jury verdict obtained by the firm three years earlier. Mr. Weathington described the issue before the Court as whether “the decision of the plaintiff to deliberately and intentionally withhold [a key witness name] until the moment of ambush at trial—as in the old Perry Mason movies” was prohibited by Georgia law. The Court is expected to deliver its opinion in the next several months. Video of the oral argument can be found at the following link: Video: S16G1214 Resurgens, PC et al. v. Elliott
