Eight W|N attorneys have been named Mountain States Super Lawyers for 2010.

The objective of the Super Lawyers selection process is to create a credible, comprehensive and diverse listing of outstanding attorneys that can be used as a resource to assist attorneys and sophisticated consumers in the search for legal counsel. Global Strategy Group (GSG), one of the nation's leading market research and consulting firms, said of the selection process: "The broad range of sources used to obtain alarge and representative nominee pool, the comprehensive data search on each candidate, the protocols used to evaluate nominees, the expert panel system, and the meticulous checks and balances built into the process … leave little to chance or idiosyncratic influence." To compile its ranking, Super Lawyers evaluates candidates based on 12 indicators of peer recognition and professional achievement.

As the magazine gained repute throughout Minnesota and in Washington State (launched in 1996), the publishers began to introduce Super Lawyers in cities around the country.
