Three Attorneys Selected for Inclusion in the 2009 edition of Virginia Super Lawyers

Sheera Herrell and Kristen Hofheimer have been selected for inclusion in Super Lawyers-Rising Stars Edition 2009.

Only five percent of the lawyers in the state are named by Super Lawyers.
The selections for Super Lawyers are made by Law & Politics, a division of Key
Professional Media, Inc. of Minneapolis, Minn. Each year, Law & Politics undertakes a
rigorous multi-phase selection process that includes a statewide survey of lawyers,
independent evaluation of candidates by Law & Politics’ attorney-led research staff, a
peer review of candidates by practice area, and a good-standing and disciplinary check.
Law & Politics publishes Super Lawyers magazines across the country. In addition to the
magazines, Law & Politics publishes newspaper inserts and magazine special sections
devoted to Super Lawyers. In 2008, Super Lawyers will reach more than 13 million
readers.
Super Lawyers was first published in Minnesota in 1991. William White, attorney and
founding publisher, remains the publisher today. Law & Politics is owned by attorney
Vance Opperman, the former president of West Publishing.
Super Lawyers can be found online at superlawyers.com, where lawyers can be searched
by practice area and location.
