Congratulations are in order for Attorney Thomas T. Glasgow of the Schaumburg, IL law firm of Glasgow & Olsson, who was recent selected to the 2019 Illinois Super Lawyers list for his work in the area of criminal defense. Being named in this prestigious directory is one of the highest honors in the legal field, a distinction reserved for just 5% of attorneys in the State of Illinois. Super Lawyers goes through a rigorous, meticulous process when selecting lawyers to the list, which covers more than 70 different practice areas in every US state.

The Illinois Super Lawyers Selection Process

The path to making the list starts with nomination to the candidate pool by peers, as attorneys can not name themselves or campaign. The Super Lawyers research team then carefully vets nominees by reviewing third-party input and conducting a 12-factor analysis. Examples of the independent research factors for those who practice criminal defense include court verdicts, awards, activity within bar associations, pro bono work, written articles, and education.

If the candidate makes it through the initial research process, the next step is evaluation by peers and other attorneys. This phase results in the lawyer serving on a Blue Ribbon Panel with other candidates who received the highest number of points through the first stages. Together, the group assesses lawyers who serve within the same practice area. Therefore, Attorney Thomas Glasgow was evaluated by the highest performing attorneys in the State of Illinois in the field of criminal defense.

The final selection phases result in a small representative group of lawyers from firms of all sizes and sole practitioners. An attorney selected to the Super Lawyers list for criminal defense is among the best and brightest in this practice area.
