Fifty of the nominated attorneys are chosen to advance to the final selection stage by the Selection Committee and then the Board of Governors officially selects the Top 10 in each state. The website of the NAPIA states that “very few attorneys (less than 1%) that are good enough to make our list have demonstrated an extraordinary amount of knowledge, skill, experience and success in their practice of Personal Injury.”
