Partner Steven Lieberman has been selected as a Fellow of the Litigation Counsel of America (LCA), an invitation-only trial lawyer honorary society established to reflect the new face of the American bar and to recognize deserving, experienced, and highly qualified lawyers. LCA membership is limited to 3,500 fellows - less than one-half of one percent of American lawyers.
With a diverse composition, LCA provides an outlet for scholarly authorship of legal articles on trial and litigation practice, provides additional sources for professional development, promotes superior advocacy and ethical standards in the practice of law, assists in community involvement by its membership, and advances a superior judiciary, by taking relevant positions on issues or legislation affecting judicial compensation and/or benefits, as well as those affecting the American litigation processes. Fellows are selected and invited into Fellowship after being evaluated for effectiveness and accomplishment in litigation and trial work, along with ethical reputation. LCA’s selection process is a combination of Fellow input, internal research, nominations by Fellows, attorney opinions, evaluation of client selection of counsel, limited input from active and retired judges, and reviews of acknowledgement and recognition by other peer reviewing sources and associations.
