Recognized as Super Lawyers®
The Super Lawyers ® list is assembled based on an exhaustive process of nominations and reviews by other attorneys who have seen the nominees in action. Its annual list name the top attorneys in the region, representing less than 5% of lawyers in the state.
Attorney Michelle May O'Neil and Attorney Michael Wysocki have both been featured in the Texas Super Lawyers®: O'Neil in 2011, 2012, 2013 and 2014 and Wysocki in 2014. Attorney Wysocki has also been featured in the Super Lawyers® Rising Stars℠ list in 2010, 2012, and 2013. The Rising Stars℠ list is reserved for lawyers who have already shown great promise early in their careers and represents just 2.5% of practicing lawyers in the state.
Board Certification in Family Law
Attorneys O'Neil and Wysocki are both board certified in family law, as well as attorney Jennifer Satagaj.
The Texas Board of Legal Specialization offers all lawyers in the state the opportunity to become certified, and only board-certified attorneys are legally permitted to represent themselves as being specialists in their chosen area of practice. Out of more than 70,000 attorneys practicing in the state of Texas, only around 825 have fulfilled the strict qualifications for this prestigious honor.
Board certification means that you can trust that the attorney has demonstrated outstanding results on a consistent basis and is committed to continually remaining at the head of the field. We also have three board certified paralegals on our team.
An Avvo Score of 10.0 Superb
Avvo is an attorney-rating website that provides the public with a valuable resource for determining who the best lawyers are in any given city and area of practice.
Avvo uses a proprietary algorithm that ranks attorneys according to several factors such as years in practice, disciplinary actions, professional achievements, and industry recognition. The ranking algorithm, however, is kept confidential, so that lawyers cannot "game the system" to achieve an artificially high rating.
Attorney O'Neil has achieved the considerable distinction of the 10.0 Superb score, the highest possible Avvo Rating.
Martindale-Hubbell® AV® Rating
The Martindale-Hubbell® AV Preeminent® Rating may be the most highly sought-after peer-review rating available in the legal profession. Only approximately 5% of attorneys nationwide have achieved this considerable distinction.
AV® Rating is awarded to lawyers who have been recognized by their peers for outstanding legal skill and ability, as well as for unwavering commitment to upholding high standards of general ethical conduct. Attorney O'Neil received the AV® Rating based on the reputation she has earned over the course of her career.
