For the second year in a row, attorney Reza Torkzadeh has been named a Rising Star by California Super Lawyers magazine as one of the top attorneys in California for 2011. This distinction recognizes the best young lawyers in the country.
The selection of Mr. Torkzadeh once again highlights the level of dedication and commitment he has made not only to his profession and his clients but to the community as well.
Super Lawyers, a Thomson Reuters business, is a lawyer rating service that recognizes outstanding lawyers who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement.
The selection of Rising Star by Super Lawyers reinforces a level of accomplishment by Mr. Torkzadeh as one of California’s leading attorneys, putting him in the top 2.5 percent of up-and-coming lawyers under the age of 40.
Mr. Torkzadeh’s practice is dedicated exclusively to handling serious personal injury and wrongful death cases. He has successfully represented victims and families of those who have been catastrophically injured by someone else’s wrongdoing in both State and Federal Courts. He is the co-author of the book Accidents Happen But Who’s Going to Pay the Bills? A Consumer’s Guide to the California Personal Injury & Wrongful Death System and has published numerous articles on the topics of consumer advocacy and tort law.
The annual selections are made using a rigorous multi-phased process that includes a statewide survey of lawyers, and independent research evaluation of candidates, and peer reviews by practice area.
The Super Lawyers lists are published nationwide in Super Lawyers magazines and in leading city and regional magazines across the country. Super Lawyers magazines also feature editorial profiles of attorneys who embody excellence in the practice of law.
The first Super Lawyers list was published in 1991 and by 2009 the rating service had expanded nationwide. In February 2010 Super Lawyers was acquired by Thomson Reuters the world’s leading source of intelligent information for business and professionals.
