Chapin Fitzgerald Sullivan LLP Partners Go Perfect Three-For-Three with "Top Attorney" Recognition

Online, July 21, 2010 (Newswire.com) - SAN DIEGO -- The partners at boutique trial litigation firm Chapin Fitzgerald Sullivan LLP went a perfect three-for-three as "Top Attorneys," as recognized today by a peer voting process designed to determine the best lawyers in San Diego County. The San Diego Daily Transcript has named Ed Chapin, Ken Fitzgerald, and Jill Sullivan as three of its ten finalists in the Corporate Litigation category of its annual Top Attorneys designation.

The process for determining San Diego's Top Attorneys is as follows:

1) The San Diego Daily Transcript circulates nomination notices to attorneys listed in the San Diego Attorney Directory and advertises nomination notices in its print and online publications.

2) Each attorney is asked to nominate a lawyer with whom he or she has had a professional experience, offering the rationale for the nomination in 500 words or less.

3) After tabulating the nominations, the San Diego Daily Transcript identifies the top 25 nominated attorneys as semi-finalists, and then opens a peer voting process to determine the top ten ranked attorney finalists.

Ken Fitzgerald was previously named a Top Attorney in 2006, 2008, and 2009, while Jill Sullivan was a semi-finalist for the designation last year.

The San Diego Daily Transcript is "San Diego's only information company offering business news, data and resources daily and hourly." The inclusion of all three of Chapin Fitzgerald Sullivan LLP's partners on this prestigious list signifies that the firm is a recognized leader in San Diego's legal community.
